Up: TPC testing

Access to TPC Test Data

Cosmic-ray operation of the STAR TPC resumed September 21, 1998 at BNL/RHIC in the Building 1006 (STAR Wide-Angle Hall) assembly area; data taking continued into December, 1998.

Data were read from six readout boards using MiniDAQ; for some runs, the readout boards were distributed between two sectors to examine tracks passing close to the inner field cage.

    Unfortunately, for the moment, you must ask Lidia to retrieve files for you.
