Abstract :
We report on a technique to study the Lorentz effect compensation in muon end-cap cathode strip chambers in detectors with solenoidal magnetic fields like GEM and CMS. The method utilizes a pulsed UV laser for depositing a track-like ionization in a chamber volume and a specially designed chamber with a rotating anode wire frame. The optimal compensation angle was measured to be 26.6±0.5° in a 3.4 T magnetic field using the M1 magnet of the RD5 experiment at CERN. The results are in good agreement with simulations.
