40 Pad Response Function The induced charge distribution is called “ Pad Response Function ”. Width of PRF 1.Direct measure of the power to distinguish between two close-by coordinates. 2.Determine the two-track resolution.

41 : chamber-specific pad response width, often normalized to the pad width Δ P by Parameterization of PRF Under the optimal design of pad width G : the distance between sense wire and cathode plane

42 Smearing Effects to PRF The transverse diffusion The angular wire effect The angle under which the tracks cross the wire- normal. The E × B effect close to the sense wires The angular pad effect If tracks cross the normal on a pad-row under a non- zero angle. If more than one wire contributes to a pad signal.
