摘要
An array of four large time projection chambers is being assembled for the NA49 experiment at CERN. The aim is to track more than 80% of the several thousand hadrons produced in central 160 GeV/A Pb on Pb collisions. New concepts in TPC construction, operation and tracking-algorithms have been used to master the extreme track densities encountered in these events. First results obtained in the November 1994 Pb run will be discussed.
