Abstract

We have studied several methods to achieve the best spatial resolution and the highest track reconstruction efficiency using the limited streamer tube planes with external pickup strips orthogonal to signal wires and the analog readout of the CHORUS Muon Spectrometer. The analysis has been performed with real data of 100 GeV beam muons at CERN Labarotary in Geneva. Using a combined algorithm of common bias level subtraction and an empirical function to determine the center of the induced charge distribution on the 18 mm wide strips, we have obtained a spatial resolution of about 3 mm
