Abstract: The Bonn TPC group is working on the development of a TPC readout module based on the TimePix chip and a triple GEM gas amplification structure. The TimePix chip has a pixel size of 55 by 55 square microns and allows to determine either the amount of charge arriving on one pixel or the arrival time of the charge. Operating the pixels alternating in either mode in a checkerboard...

Abstract:
Gating, a suppression system of ion back drift, is one of the most
important issues for ILC TPC. Wire was used as a gating system but a
large ExB effect may degrate the position resolution in high magnetic
field at ILC. GEM is a promissing candidate of the gating system since
the ExB effect is smaller due to its fine structure. But the electron
transmission efficinecy is not so...

I will show the present status of the Micromegas panel with a resistive
anode design for the Large Prototype and will describe the ongoing R&D
toward a resistive bulk Micromegas detector, read out by a new
electronics based on the AFTER chip.
I will also report on a recent cosmic-ray test of a prototype module of
the T2K TPC in the HARP magnet at CERN, read out with this new
electronics.

I will show results from the small prototype TPC at Cornell,
comparing bulk Micromegas and triple GEM readouts.
I will also report on status of the mechanical design
of the LCTPC Large Prototype endplate.
