23/08/2005 Ron Settles MPI-Munich/DESY Snowmass2005 TPC Large Prototype11 Plans 1) Demonstration phase –Continue work for ~1 year with small prototypes on mapping out parameter space, understanding resolution, etc, to prove feasibility of an MPGD TPC. For Si-based ideas this will include a basic proof-of-principle. 2) Consolidation phase –Build and operate “large” prototype (Ø ≥ 75cm, drift ≥ 100cm) within framework of EUDET grant from the EU which allows any MPGD technology, to test manufacturing techniques for MPGD endplates, fieldcage and electronics. Design work would start in ~1/2 year, building and testing another ~ 2-3 years. 3) Design phase –After phase 2, the decision as to which endplate technology to use for the LC TPC would be taken and final design started.
