CERN 大型强子对撞机紧凑型 μ 子电磁阀实验的 μ 子探测系统基于不同的 μ 子跟踪和触发技术。特别是，探测器端盖盘中的 μ 子系统由用于触发的电阻板室和用于跟踪的阴极带室组成。目前，端盖 μ 子系统仅部分装备，最前面的探测器区域仍未覆盖。鉴于μ子端盖系统未来可能的扩展，我们报告了使用微图案气体探测器（特别是气体电子倍增器）进行μ子触发和跟踪的可行性研究。介绍了小型三气体电子倍增器原型探测器的构造和表征结果。
The muon detection system of the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider is based on different technologies for muon tracking and triggering. In particular, the muon system in the endcap disks of the detector consists of Resistive Plate Chambers for triggering and Cathode Strip Chambers for tracking. At present, the endcap muon system is only partially instrumented with the very forward detector region remaining uncovered. In view of a possible future extension of the muon endcap system, we report on a feasibility study on the use of Micro-Pattern Gas Detectors, in particular Gas Electron Multipliers, for both muon triggering and tracking. Results on the construction and characterization of small triple-Gas Electron Multiplier prototype detectors are presented.
