Description
The LC TPC R&D work has been underway for four years, whereby the various TPC groups
have been learning to use the MPGD techniques by building and measuring with an
impressive number of small TPC prototypes (around 30cm diameter) using cosmics and
test beams, and using a variety of different gas mixtures. The next stage of this
work will focus the groups and work on building a Large Prototype (ca. 80) and using
it as a testbed for the techniques to be chosen for the LC TPC. These plans will be
described in this presentation.
