Abstract :
A two-cell prototype of the SLD Central Drift Chamber has been tested using CO2-isobutane (92%-8%) at one atmosphere. Average single wire resolution of 55 ¿m was achieved. Charge division tests indicate a resolution for the final design of ¿ 0.5% of wire length. dE/dx separation of ¿ - e should be useful up to at least 7 GeV/c.
