The effects of various materials on aging rates of wire chambers filled with dimethylether gas were investigated. Silicone compounds and urethane polymers were observed to dramatically increase aging damage in test chambers. All other materials tested did not appear to significantly affect the measu
Drift chamber ageing is a serious concern for the operation of the Monitored Drift Tube chambers (MDT) in the ATLAS muon system. Therefore systematic studies of ageing effects have been carried out at the University of Freiburg. It has been shown that tiny contaminations with volatile silicon compou
