A drift chamber tracking system was developed and flown as part of the IMAX balloon-borne magnetic spectrometer. The drift chamber uses a hexagonal drift-cell structure and is filled with pure CO2 gas. It operated with high efficiency in the strong and inhomogenous field of a superconducting magnet, demonstrating a spatial resolution of better than 100 μm over most of the drift path for singly charged particles, as well as for helium and lithium nuclei. The drift chamber portion of the spectrometer achieved a maximum detectable rigidity of 175 and 250 GV/c for protons and helium respectively.

Abstract A balloon-borne experiment using a superconducting solenoidal magnet spectrometer is being carried out with aims at making a precise measurement of low energy antiproton flux in cosmic rays and a highly sensitive search for primordial antimatter in the Universe. The spectrometer has a unique cylindrical configuration associated with a thin superconducting solenoidal magnet and is realizing a geometrical acceptance of 0.5 m 2 sr. The first scientific ballooning flight was successfully carried out in northern Canada, in summer, 1993, and the second flight is being prepared to be carried out in summer, 1994. Performance of the spectrometer in the first flight and progress of the experiment are described.
