Abstract
Techniques for measuring the longitudinal coordinates in drift tubes are considered. It is shown that the use of the direct timing method to determine the longitudinal coordinates helps to obtain the longitudinal resolution several times better relative to the charge division method and is suitable for long tubes. The implementation of this method provides a means for designing coordinate detectors based on drift tubes with the two-dimensional readout and a high response speed, which will not be very complex.
