Transition radiation detectors—“B” trackers manufactured at JINR for ATLAS LHC inner detector

The results of the creation of a transition radiation detector—a “B” tracker on the basis of thin-walled drift tubes (straw tubes) for the inner detector of the ATLAS Large Hadron Collider (LHC)—are presented. The results of preliminary detector testing are described. The basic components and procedures of assembly for 17 eight-layer TRT modules manufactured at JINR are described.
