Description

Abstract: Previous Research and Development on a TPC for the ILC has been done using small prototypes. To test larger readout structures in a comparable setup, a large TPC prototype is being build inside the EUDET project and the LCTPC group. This prototype will be equipped with a modular endplate to allow the testing of different readout techniques in a common infrastructure. The status of the prototype construction and its infrastructure at DESY are presented in this talk.
