  • Abstract
    A small prototype of a TPC having a parallel plate counter as end-cap detector has been tested in the laboratory. The parallel plate counter has a resistive germanium anode. A spatial resolution < 200¿m and a two track resolution of the order of 1 mm for both the coordinates parallel to the detection plane has been measured.
