Abstract: (Elsevier)
A new type of projection chamber with cylindrical structure and radial electric drift field is proposed. This detector should improve by one order of magnitude the spatial accuracy and double-track resolution obtainable with other types of wire-chamber configurations in the region close to the beam pipe in colliding beam machines.
