“…It is easy to ignite Malter currents in a detector operating with hydrocarbon gases at elevated high voltages [18] or forcing chambers to breakdown [19]- [21], and in a detector, which has been previously exposed to TMAE gas [22]. The CRID RICH detector [23] with an excellent 3-dimensional single electron reconstruction capability allowed the first imaging of the onset of the Malter effect, which starts from sporadic bursts of single electrons from a localized cathode spot [22]. Such a positive feedback between electron emission at the cathode and anode amplification will lead to high ionization densities at distinct chamber locations.…”

High Energy Physics experiments are currently entering a new era which requires the operation of gaseous particle detectors at unprecedented high rates and integrated particle fluxes. Full functionality of such detectors over the lifetime of an experiment in a harsh radiation environment is of prime concern to the involved experimenters. New classes of gaseous detectors such as large-scale straw-type detectors, Micro-pattern Gas Detectors and related detector types with their own specific aging effects have evolved since the first workshop on wire chamber aging was held at LBL, Berkeley in 1986. In light of these developments and as detector aging is a notoriously complex field, the goal of the workshop was to provide a forum for interested experimentalists to review the progress in understanding of aging effects and to exchange recent experiences.A brief summary of the main results and experiences reported at the 2001 workshop is presented, with the goal of providing a systematic review of aging effects in state-of-the-art and future gaseous detectors.

“…The design of the endcap CRID is similar to that of the barrel CRID [1], but the design of the TPCs had to be modified because the photo-electrons drift perpendicular to the 0.6 Tesla magnetic field of SLD. The resulting non zero Lorentz angle (0£) required a speciil design for the MWPC focussing structure.…”
