- From Zhangbu
Last week, Robert brought to my attention that iTPC is one of the greatest accomplishments STAR did in the last decade, and
now that the BESII data have been taken, and analyses are on-going,
we should write a NIMA paper to document:
mechanic structure and pad/electronic layouts,
Operation and performance,
Online/offline Calibration and Physics technical performance
It is also important to document this for future physics paper references and also
serve as a historic document before everyone moves on and forgets about all the details.

outline based on DNP talk NIM_outline
Reference documents
The technical design report is available as a STAR note SN0644.
The iTPC closeout report with KPP and performance plots
The Shandong group wrote two NIM performance papers
1) F. Shen et al., MWPC prototyping and performance test for the STAR inner TPC upgrade, Nucl. Instrum. Meth. A 896, 90 (2018).
2) X. Wang et al., Design and implementation of wire tension measurement system for MWPCs used in the STAR iTPC upgrade, Nucl. Instrum. Meth. A 859 (2017) 90–94.
