Abstract :
A fast and accurate algorithm to calculate the charge and current induced on all the electrodes of wire chambers (MWPC, ´pad chambers´, TPC....) is presented. The algorithm is completely three dimensional so that it is possible to calculate the induced charge on anode wires and cathode strips or ´pads´ regardless of their orientation in space.
