“…1. The major scattered electron sensor is a multiple wire proportional counter (MWPC) with 99 cells, which detects electrons through an electrical discharge signal recorded by detectors assembled at two extreme ends of the sensor [8]. Identification of at least three cells and the three respective drift times is enough to position precisely the track of the scattered electron at the focal plane of the spectrometer [8].…”

“…The quadrupole polarities were configured for maximum angular acceptance in the bend (vertical) plane, a nonstandard configuration. Above the dipole was the vertical drift chamber (VDCX) [14] consisting of two planes of wires at 45" to the horizontal. The wires were read out using a delay-line system which allowed a maximum of four wires to be read from each plane; the drift times to those wires were measured.…”

“…where to is the arrival time of the particle in the drift-cell, and t is the time at which the pulse appears at the anode [Ber77]. The quantity~is a measure of the spatial distributions of events in the drift-cell.…”
