Improvements to the Range Stack Straw Chambers for the measurement of K+-(pi)+vv
Experiments E787/E949 at Brookhaven National Lab are aiming to measure the rare decay K⁻ —> π⁺ vv, expected in the Standard Model to have a branching ratio on the order of 10 ⁻¹⁰ . This thesis is related to improvements to the performance of one of the subsystems - the Range Stack Straw Chamber...
