The construction of a micro-pattern gas detector of dimensions 40x10 cm**2 is described. Two gas electron multiplier foils (GEM) provide the internal amplification stages. A two-layer readout structure was used, manufactured in the same technology as the GEM foils. The strips of each layer cross at an effective crossing angle of 6.7 degrees and have a 406 um pitch. The performance of the detector has been evaluated in a muon beam at CERN using a silicon telescope as reference system. The position resolutions of two orthogonal coordinates are measured to be 50 um and 1 mm, respectively. The muon detection efficiency for two-dimensional space points reaches 96%.

We briefly describe the design, construction and performance of the LiF-Tea RICH detector built to identify charged particles in the CLEO III experiment. Excellent pion/kaon separation is demonstrated.
We report on the manufacture of a first batch of approximately 2,000 Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) using 3Ms fully automated roll to roll flexible circuit production line. This process allows low-cost, reproducible fabrication of a high volume of G
EMs of dimensions up to 30$times$30 cm$^{2}$. First tests indicate that the resulting GEMs have optimal properties as radiation detectors. Production techniques and preliminary measurements of GEM performance are described. This now demonstrated industrial capability should help further establish the prominence of micropattern gas detectors in accelerator based and non-accelerator particle physics, imaging and photodetection.
A muon range detector (MRD) has been constructed as a near detector for the KEK-to-Kamioka long-baseline neutrino experiment (K2K). It monitors the neutrino beam properties at the near site by measuring the energy, angle and production point of muons
produced by charged-current neutrino interaction. The detector has been working stably since the start of the K2K experiment.
Micro-TPC, a time projection chamber(TPC) with micro pixel chamber($mu$-PIC) readout was developed for the detection of the three-dimensional fine(sub-m illimeter) tracks of charged particles. We developed a two-dimensional position sensitive gaseous
detector, or the $mu$-PIC, with the detection area of 10$times$10 cm${}^{2}$ and 65536 anode electrodes of 400 $mu$m pitch. We achieved the gas gain of over 10000 without any other multipliers. With the pipe-line readout system specially developed for the $mu$-PIC, we detected X-rays at the rate as high as 7.7 Mcps. We attached a drift cage with an 8 cm drift length to the $mu$-PIC and developed a micro-TPC. We measured the basic performances of the micro-TPC and took three-dimensional tracks of electrons. We also developed a prototype of the MeV gamma-ray imaging detector which is a hybrid of the micro-TPC and NaI(Tl) scintillators and confirmed its concept by reconstructing the obtained data.
A prototype Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detector is under construction for medical imaging purposes. A single thick GEM of size 10x10 cm^2 is assembled inside a square shaped air-tight box which is made of Perspex glass. In order to ionize gas insi
de the drift field two types of voltage supplier circuits were fabricated, and array of 2x4 pads of each size 4x8 mm^2 were utilized for collecting avalanche charges. Preliminary testing results show that the circuit which produces high voltage and low current is better than that of low voltage and high current supplier circuit in terms of x-ray signal counting rates.
