Abstract: (Elsevier)
A multiparticle spectrometer at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings is equipped with proportional chambers as detectors. In this paper we describe design and performance of the vertex detector around the collision region. The detector consists of ∼20 000 proportional wires in densely packed chambers.
