Abstract

Three drift chambers arranged to represent the cross section of the LEP L3 muon detector were used for track measurements. Displacing the middle chamber by 3.8 mm, corresponding to the sagitta of a 45 GeV muon in 5.1 kG, measurements with UV laser tracks 3 m long yield an equivalent momentum resolution of 1.5%.
