Abstract:
The Central Outer Tracker is a large cylindrical drift
chamber constructed to replace Collider Detector at
Fermilab's original central drift chamber for the higher
luminosity expected for Run 2 at the Fermilab Tevatron.
The chamber's drift properties are described in the
context of meeting the operating requirements for Run 2.
The design and construction of the chamber, the front-
end readout electronics, and the high-voltage system are
described in detail. Wire aging considerations are also
discussed.
