% Note that the a4paper option is mainly intended so that authors in
% countries using A4 can easily print to A4 and see how their papers will
% look in print - the typesetting of the document will not typically be
% affected with changes in paper size (but the bottom and side margins will).
% Use the testflow package mentioned above to verify correct handling of
% both paper sizes by the user's LaTeX system.
%
% Also note that the "draftcls" or "draftclsnofoot", not "draft", option
% should be used if it is desired that the figures are to be displayed in
% draft mode.

% Some very useful LaTeX packages include:
% (uncomment the ones you want to load)


% *** MISC UTILITY PACKAGES ***
%
%\usepackage{ifpdf}
% Heiko Oberdiek's ifpdf.sty is very useful if you need conditional
% compilation based on whether the output is pdf or dvi.
% usage:
% \ifpdf
%   % pdf code
% \else
%   % dvi code
% \fi
% The latest version of ifpdf.sty can be obtained from:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek/
% Also, note that IEEEtran.cls V1.7 and later provides a builtin
% \ifCLASSINFOpdf conditional that works the same way.
% When switching from latex to pdflatex and vice-versa, the compiler may
% have to be run twice to clear warning/error messages.

\usepackage{upgreek}




% *** CITATION PACKAGES ***
%
%\usepackage{cite}
% cite.sty was written by Donald Arseneau
% V1.6 and later of IEEEtran pre-defines the format of the cite.sty package
% \cite{} output to follow that of IEEE. Loading the cite package will
% result in citation numbers being automatically sorted and properly
% "compressed/ranged". e.g., [1], [9], [2], [7], [5], [6] without using
% cite.sty will become [1], [2], [5]--[7], [9] using cite.sty. cite.sty's
% \cite will automatically add leading space, if needed. Use cite.sty's
% noadjust option (cite.sty V3.8 and later) if you want to turn this off.
% cite.sty is already installed on most LaTeX systems. Be sure and use
% version 4.0 (2003-05-27) and later if using hyperref.sty. cite.sty does
% not currently provide for hyperlinked citations.
% The latest version can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/cite/
% The documentation is contained in the cite.sty file itself.






% *** GRAPHICS RELATED PACKAGES ***
%
\ifCLASSINFOpdf
  \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
%   declare the path(s) where your graphic files are
  \graphicspath{{.}}
%   and their extensions so you won't have to specify these with
%   every instance of \includegraphics
  \DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.pdf,.jpeg,.png}
\else
%   or other class option (dvipsone, dvipdf, if not using dvips). graphicx
%   will default to the driver specified in the system graphics.cfg if no
%   driver is specified.
  \usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
%   declare the path(s) where your graphic files are
  \graphicspath{{../eps/}}
%   and their extensions so you won't have to specify these with
%   every instance of \includegraphics
  \DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.eps}
\fi
% graphicx was written by David Carlisle and Sebastian Rahtz. It is
% required if you want graphics, photos, etc. graphicx.sty is already
% installed on most LaTeX systems. The latest version and documentation can
% be obtained at: 
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/graphics/
% Another good source of documentation is "Using Imported Graphics in
% LaTeX2e" by Keith Reckdahl which can be found as epslatex.ps or
% epslatex.pdf at: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/
%
% latex, and pdflatex in dvi mode, support graphics in encapsulated
% postscript (.eps) format. pdflatex in pdf mode supports graphics
% in .pdf, .jpeg, .png and .mps (metapost) formats. Users should ensure
% that all non-photo figures use a vector format (.eps, .pdf, .mps) and
% not a bitmapped formats (.jpeg, .png). IEEE frowns on bitmapped formats
% which can result in "jaggedy"/blurry rendering of lines and letters as
% well as large increases in file sizes.
%
% You can find documentation about the pdfTeX application at:
% http://www.tug.org/applications/pdftex





% *** MATH PACKAGES ***
%
%\usepackage[cmex10]{amsmath}
% A popular package from the American Mathematical Society that provides
% many useful and powerful commands for dealing with mathematics. If using
% it, be sure to load this package with the cmex10 option to ensure that
% only type 1 fonts will utilized at all point sizes. Without this option,
% it is possible that some math symbols, particularly those within
% footnotes, will be rendered in bitmap form which will result in a
% document that can not be IEEE Xplore compliant!
%
% Also, note that the amsmath package sets \interdisplaylinepenalty to 10000
% thus preventing page breaks from occurring within multiline equations. Use:
%\interdisplaylinepenalty=2500
% after loading amsmath to restore such page breaks as IEEEtran.cls normally
% does. amsmath.sty is already installed on most LaTeX systems. The latest
% version and documentation can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/amslatex/math/





% *** SPECIALIZED LIST PACKAGES ***
%
%\usepackage{algorithmic}
% algorithmic.sty was written by Peter Williams and Rogerio Brito.
% This package provides an algorithmic environment fo describing algorithms.
% You can use the algorithmic environment in-text or within a figure
% environment to provide for a floating algorithm. Do NOT use the algorithm
% floating environment provided by algorithm.sty (by the same authors) or
% algorithm2e.sty (by Christophe Fiorio) as IEEE does not use dedicated
% algorithm float types and packages that provide these will not provide
% correct IEEE style captions. The latest version and documentation of
% algorithmic.sty can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/algorithms/
% There is also a support site at:
% http://algorithms.berlios.de/index.html
% Also of interest may be the (relatively newer and more customizable)
% algorithmicx.sty package by Szasz Janos:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/algorithmicx/




% *** ALIGNMENT PACKAGES ***
%
%\usepackage{array}
% Frank Mittelbach's and David Carlisle's array.sty patches and improves
% the standard LaTeX2e array and tabular environments to provide better
% appearance and additional user controls. As the default LaTeX2e table
% generation code is lacking to the point of almost being broken with
% respect to the quality of the end results, all users are strongly
% advised to use an enhanced (at the very least that provided by array.sty)
% set of table tools. array.sty is already installed on most systems. The
% latest version and documentation can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/tools/


%\usepackage{mdwmath}
%\usepackage{mdwtab}
% Also highly recommended is Mark Wooding's extremely powerful MDW tools,
% especially mdwmath.sty and mdwtab.sty which are used to format equations
% and tables, respectively. The MDWtools set is already installed on most
% LaTeX systems. The lastest version and documentation is available at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/mdwtools/


% IEEEtran contains the IEEEeqnarray family of commands that can be used to
% generate multiline equations as well as matrices, tables, etc., of high
% quality.


%\usepackage{eqparbox}
% Also of notable interest is Scott Pakin's eqparbox package for creating
% (automatically sized) equal width boxes - aka "natural width parboxes".
% Available at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/eqparbox/





% *** SUBFIGURE PACKAGES ***
%\usepackage[tight,footnotesize]{subfigure}
% subfigure.sty was written by Steven Douglas Cochran. This package makes it
% easy to put subfigures in your figures. e.g., "Figure 1a and 1b". For IEEE
% work, it is a good idea to load it with the tight package option to reduce
% the amount of white space around the subfigures. subfigure.sty is already
% installed on most LaTeX systems. The latest version and documentation can
% be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/obsolete/macros/latex/contrib/subfigure/
% subfigure.sty has been superceeded by subfig.sty.



%\usepackage[caption=false]{caption}
%\usepackage[font=footnotesize]{subfig}
% subfig.sty, also written by Steven Douglas Cochran, is the modern
% replacement for subfigure.sty. However, subfig.sty requires and
% automatically loads Axel Sommerfeldt's caption.sty which will override
% IEEEtran.cls handling of captions and this will result in nonIEEE style
% figure/table captions. To prevent this problem, be sure and preload
% caption.sty with its "caption=false" package option. This is will preserve
% IEEEtran.cls handing of captions. Version 1.3 (2005/06/28) and later 
% (recommended due to many improvements over 1.2) of subfig.sty supports
% the caption=false option directly:
%\usepackage[caption=false,font=footnotesize]{subfig}
%
% The latest version and documentation can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/subfig/
% The latest version and documentation of caption.sty can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/caption/




% *** FLOAT PACKAGES ***
%
%\usepackage{fixltx2e}
% fixltx2e, the successor to the earlier fix2col.sty, was written by
% Frank Mittelbach and David Carlisle. This package corrects a few problems
% in the LaTeX2e kernel, the most notable of which is that in current
% LaTeX2e releases, the ordering of single and double column floats is not
% guaranteed to be preserved. Thus, an unpatched LaTeX2e can allow a
% single column figure to be placed prior to an earlier double column
% figure. The latest version and documentation can be found at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/base/



%\usepackage{stfloats}
% stfloats.sty was written by Sigitas Tolusis. This package gives LaTeX2e
% the ability to do double column floats at the bottom of the page as well
% as the top. (e.g., "\begin{figure*}[!b]" is not normally possible in
% LaTeX2e). It also provides a command:
%\fnbelowfloat
% to enable the placement of footnotes below bottom floats (the standard
% LaTeX2e kernel puts them above bottom floats). This is an invasive package
% which rewrites many portions of the LaTeX2e float routines. It may not work
% with other packages that modify the LaTeX2e float routines. The latest
% version and documentation can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/sttools/
% Documentation is contained in the stfloats.sty comments as well as in the
% presfull.pdf file. Do not use the stfloats baselinefloat ability as IEEE
% does not allow \baselineskip to stretch. Authors submitting work to the
% IEEE should note that IEEE rarely uses double column equations and
% that authors should try to avoid such use. Do not be tempted to use the
% cuted.sty or midfloat.sty packages (also by Sigitas Tolusis) as IEEE does
% not format its papers in such ways.


%\ifCLASSOPTIONcaptionsoff
%  \usepackage[nomarkers]{endfloat}
% \let\MYoriglatexcaption\caption
% \renewcommand{\caption}[2][\relax]{\MYoriglatexcaption[#2]{#2}}
%\fi
% endfloat.sty was written by James Darrell McCauley and Jeff Goldberg.
% This package may be useful when used in conjunction with IEEEtran.cls'
% captionsoff option. Some IEEE journals/societies require that submissions
% have lists of figures/tables at the end of the paper and that
% figures/tables without any captions are placed on a page by themselves at
% the end of the document. If needed, the draftcls IEEEtran class option or
% \CLASSINPUTbaselinestretch interface can be used to increase the line
% spacing as well. Be sure and use the nomarkers option of endfloat to
% prevent endfloat from "marking" where the figures would have been placed
% in the text. The two hack lines of code above are a slight modification of
% that suggested by in the endfloat docs (section 8.3.1) to ensure that
% the full captions always appear in the list of figures/tables - even if
% the user used the short optional argument of \caption[]{}.
% IEEE papers do not typically make use of \caption[]'s optional argument,
% so this should not be an issue. A similar trick can be used to disable
% captions of packages such as subfig.sty that lack options to turn off
% the subcaptions:
% For subfig.sty:
% \let\MYorigsubfloat\subfloat
% \renewcommand{\subfloat}[2][\relax]{\MYorigsubfloat[]{#2}}
% For subfigure.sty:
% \let\MYorigsubfigure\subfigure
% \renewcommand{\subfigure}[2][\relax]{\MYorigsubfigure[]{#2}}
% However, the above trick will not work if both optional arguments of
% the \subfloat/subfig command are used. Furthermore, there needs to be a
% description of each subfigure *somewhere* and endfloat does not add
% subfigure captions to its list of figures. Thus, the best approach is to
% avoid the use of subfigure captions (many IEEE journals avoid them anyway)
% and instead reference/explain all the subfigures within the main caption.
% The latest version of endfloat.sty and its documentation can obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/endfloat/
%
% The IEEEtran \ifCLASSOPTIONcaptionsoff conditional can also be used
% later in the document, say, to conditionally put the References on a 
% page by themselves.





% *** PDF, URL AND HYPERLINK PACKAGES ***
%
%\usepackage{url}
% url.sty was written by Donald Arseneau. It provides better support for
% handling and breaking URLs. url.sty is already installed on most LaTeX
% systems. The latest version can be obtained at:
% http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/misc/
% Read the url.sty source comments for usage information. Basically,
% \url{my_url_here}.





% *** Do not adjust lengths that control margins, column widths, etc. ***
% *** Do not use packages that alter fonts (such as pslatex).         ***
% There should be no need to do such things with IEEEtran.cls V1.6 and later.

% to submit to, of course. )

Small-diameter muon drift tube (sMDT) chambers are a cost-effective technology for high-precision muon tracking.
% The chamber design and construction procedures have been optimized for mass production while providing a precision of better than 10 micrometers in the sense wire positions and the mechanical stability required to cover large areas.  
% The  inherent mechanical precision allows for highly accurate monitoring of the absolute alignment of the chambers in the detector. 
% The sMDT chamber design profits from the long experience with the MDT chambers in ATLAS and provides even higher reliability.
% The chambers are operated with a mixture of argon and CO$_{2}$  gas at 3 bar and are not susceptive to aging. 
The rate capability of the sMDT chambers has been extensively tested at the Gamma Irradiation Facility at CERN in view of expected rates at future high-energy hadron colliders. 
Results show that it fulfills the requirements over most of the acceptance of muon detectors. 
The optimization of the read-out electronics to further increase the rate capability of the detectors is discussed. 
Chambers of this type are under construction for upgrades of the muon spectrometer of the ATLAS detector at high LHC luminosities.

\section{Introduction}
\begin{figure}[tb]

\includegraphics[width=0.9\columnwidth]{tubes}
\caption{Picture of MDT (left) and sMDT (right) tubes.}
\label{fig:tubes}
\end{figure}
Drift tubes are a cost-effective technology for high-precision muon tracking over large detector areas. Monitored drift tube (MDT) chambers have been used for precision muon tracking at the ATLAS experiment. They provide an excellent spatial resolution, high tracking efficiency independent of the track incident angle, and are not susceptible to aging effects from irradition.
Small-diameter muon drift tube (sMDT) chambers~\cite{cite:sMDT} with a tube diameter of \unit{15}{mm}, i.e. half of the tube diameter of the MDT chambers, have been developed. Due to their shorter drift time, they are particularly suitable for high rates in harsh radition environments. A picture of MDT and sMDT is shown in Figure~\ref{fig:tubes}, and a detailed destription of its physics properties will be given in Section~\ref{sec:sMDT}. 

Two future hadron-colliders are considered as application sMDT chambers in this study: the upgrade of the large hadron collider~(LHC) for high luminosities~(HL-LHC), and the future circular hadron collider (FCC-hh). 

The HL-LHC envisages to fully exploit the potential of the LHC. While the design centre-of-mass energy of \unit{14}{TeV} is sustained, the luminosity will be increased from $300\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ at the LHC to $3000\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ at the HL-LHC, which will allow to study very rare processes at high precision. The large accumulated data set is based on a peak instantaneous luminosity of $L=7\cdot10^{34}\,\mathrm{cm}^{-2}\mathrm{s}^{-1}$.
The ATLAS sMDT chambers are part of the upgrade program of the ATLAS detector and will be employed at yet uncovered regions of very high rate. The required momentum resolution for a muon with a transverse momentum of $p_\mathrm{T} = 1\,\mathrm{TeV}$ remains the same as for the LHC, $dp_\mathrm{T} / p_\mathrm{T} = 10\%$.

\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.9\columnwidth]{occupancy_hllhc}
\caption{Expected occupancies of MDT chambers for operating conditions at the HL-LHC in a quadrant of the ATLAS muon spectrometer.}
\label{fig:occupancy_hllhc}
\end{figure}

The FCC-hh is planned as the successor of the HL-LHC to search for physics processes beyond the Standard Model of Particle Physics at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 100\,\mathrm{TeV}$. In the conceptual design study, superconducting dipole magnets with a magnetic field strength of $16\,\mathrm{T}$ are considered to be feasible. The resulting circular tunnel requires a circumference of around $100\,\mathrm{km}$ and is planned to be located at CERN in order to use the existing LHC complex as preaccelerator. Its luminosity is forseen to be increased in two steps. Phase~I corresponds to $L=5\cdot10^{34}\,\mathrm{cm}^{-2}\mathrm{s}^{-1}$, i.e. slightly below the one of the HL-LHC, while Phase~II envisages $L=30\cdot10^{34}\,\mathrm{cm}^{-2}\mathrm{s}^{-1}$, i.e. four times higher than the one at the HL-LHC.
The detector concepts for the FCC-hh are very similar to those of ATLAS and CMS, using a muon spectrometer with either a superconducting toroidal or (twin) solenoid magnet system in the barrel region, and dedicated dipole magnets in the forward region. The air-core magnets are supposed to provide a magnetic field strength of~\unit{3}{T}. In order to account for the seven times higher centre-of-mass energy, a momentum resolution of $dp_\mathrm{T} / p_\mathrm{T} = 10\%$ for $p_\mathrm{T} = 7\,\mathrm{TeV}$ is foreseen. Given the higher field strength at the FCC-hh detectors, the spatial resolution is required to be $30-40$ micrometer, similar to the spatial resolution of MDT chambers at ATLAS. %It is hence achieved by the (s)MDT chambers.

The operating conditions of a hadron collider are characterized by high $\gamma$~and neutron background rates from interactions of the proton collision products in the detector, and with the beam shielding. Thus, the radiation depends on the structure of minimum bias events, and on the instantaneous luminosity. The inelastic cross-section of proton-proton collisions at \unit{\sqrt{s}=14}{TeV} is about \unit{\sigma_{\mathrm{pp}} = 80}{mb} with an average number of charge particles of $N_\mathrm{ch} = 5.4$, and an average particle momentum of \unit{p = 0.6}{GeV}. At \unit{\sqrt{s}=100}{TeV}, this increases only moderately to about \unit{\sigma_{\mathrm{pp}} = 100}{mb}, $N_\mathrm{ch} = 8$, and \unit{p = 0.8}{GeV}, respectively. Typical rates in the barrel (end-cap) region for a muon detector according to these operating conditions amount to approximately $20\,\mathrm{Hz}/\mathrm{cm}^{2}$ ($100\,\mathrm{Hz}/\mathrm{cm}^{2}$) at the HL-LHC, and $100\,\mathrm{Hz}/\mathrm{cm}^{2}$ ($250\,\mathrm{Hz}/\mathrm{cm}^{2}$), assuming a detector at the FCC-hh with a design similar to ATLAS. Figure~\ref{fig:occupancy_hllhc} shows the occupanciy of MDT chambers in a quadrant of the ATLAS detector in case of the HL-LHC. While the occupancy for MDT in the barrel region is well below a limit of $30\%$, some areas in the inner end-cap (EIL) need to be replaced.

% \section{Occupancies at the FCC-hh}
\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.9\columnwidth]{occupancy_fcc}
\caption{Expected occupancies of MDT (blue) and sMDT (red) chambers for operating conditions at the FCC-hh Phase~II luminosity, on the basis of the ATLAS muon spectrometer for illustration.}
\label{fig:occupancy_fcc}
\end{figure}
The smaller drift radius of the sMDT result in higher rate capabilities and improved resolution. Figure~\ref{fig:occupancy_fcc} shows the occupancy in FCC-hh phase~II for MDT and sMDT chambers, assuming a detector design that is identical to the one of ATLAS for illustative purposes. In the barrel, the MDT chamber occupancy ranges from 3.2\% to 32\%, i.e. close to the limit of MDT. The sMDT occupancy, however, stays below 4\% for the barrel, and reaches 30\% only in the inner end-cap where rates are in the order of $250\,\mathrm{Hz}/\mathrm{cm}^{2}$. Hence, sMDT chambers are well suited in terms of expected rates at a future circular collider.

\section{Small-diameter muon drift tubes}
\label{sec:sMDT}
Small-diameter muon drift tubes are made of Al tubes with an outer diameter of \unit{15}{mm} and a sense wire with a diameter of $50\,\upmu\mathrm{m}$. They are operated at a potential of \unit{2700}{V} using a gas mixture of Ar:CO$_{2}$ in a ratio of 93:7 and a pressure of \unit{3}{bar}. The gas gain results in $2 \cdot 10^{4}$. The sMDT represent the further development of the ATLAS MDT, whose key difference is a larger drift tube diameter of~\unit{30}{mm}.

\label{fig:spectrum}
\end{figure}
A comparison of the drift time spectra of MDT and sMDT is shown in Figure~\ref{fig:spectrum}. The maximum drift time corresponds to particle tracks close the the tube wall and amounts to \unit{700}{ns} for the MDT. Due to non-linear space-to-drift time relationship $r(t)$, the maximum drift time for the sMDT is reduced to~\unit{200}{ns}. With the smaller area cross-section of the sMDT with respect to the MDT, this improves the drift tube occupancy by a factor of eight.

\section{Drift tube performance at high background rates}
\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.72\columnwidth]{spacecharge}
\caption{Effect of space charges on the spatial resolution for different background irradiation flux~\cite{cite:bittner}.}
\label{fig:spacecharge}
\end{figure}
The drift tube performance at high background rates has been demonstrated in extensive tests~\cite{cite:bittner} at the CERN Gamma Irradiation facility (GIF)~\cite{cite:gif}. No aging up to a charge accumulation on the sense wire of $9\,\mathrm{C}/\mathrm{cm}$ has been found. This corresponds to 15 times the requirement for the current ATLAS MDT chambers~\cite{cite:sMDT}, and also exceeds the requirement for future colliders such as the FCC-hh.

The main effect from the intense irradiation is space charge building up inside the drift tubes. Ions which are created in the avalanche close the anode wire form a constant stream of slowly drifting space charges towards the tube walls. This charge has two effects. The first effect is a shielding of the potential at the anode wire, which reduces the electric field and thus the gas gain. It can be shown that the voltage drop $V$ behaves like $V \propto r^3_\mathrm{max}$, where $r^3_\mathrm{max}$ is the drift tube radius~\cite{cite:schwegler}. The gain drop decreases the signal amplitude and hence the spatial resolution at small drift radii of $r < 5\,\mathrm{mm}$. 
The second effect is due to space charge fluctuations, which modify the local electric field inside the tube, and as a consequence the space-to-drift-time relationship $r(t)$. The degradation of the spatial resolution due to this effect is stronger if the $r(t)$ relationship is non-linear, as it is the case for drift radii $r > 5\,\mathrm{mm}$.
Figure~\ref{fig:spacecharge} shows both effects on the spatial resolution as a function of the drift radius for different irradiation levels from $0$ to $818\,\mathrm{Hz}/\mathrm{cm}^{2}$. A tube diameter of \unit{30}{mm} gives the best resolution at low irradiation, but space charge effects degrade the resolution substantially at small and large drift radii under high irradiation. Small-tube drift tubes with a diameter of \unit{15}{mm} avoid the effects from space charge fluctuations completely, and also the gain drop is largely reduced, which can be seen in Figure~\ref{fig:gaindrop}.  
\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.9\columnwidth]{gaindrop}
\caption{Relative gas gain for MDT and sMDT as a function of the photon hit flux with respect to the nominal gas gain $G_0=2\cdot10^4$~\cite{cite:bittner}.}
\label{fig:gaindrop}
\end{figure}
It shows the gas gain with respect to the nominal gas gain of $G_0=2\cdot10^4$ as a function of the photon flux for the MDT and the sMDT. The expectation is based on Diethorn's formula for a primary ionisation charge of $Q_\mathrm{prim} = 1300e$ ($Q_\mathrm{prim} = 900e$) per converted photon for MDT (sMDT), which has been determined experimentally~\cite{cite:bittner}. For the smaller tube diameter, the gain loss is reduced by an order of magnitude.

\begin{figure}[tb]

\includegraphics[width=0.9\columnwidth]{efficiency}
\caption{Muon detection efficiency of  MDT and sMDT as a function of the photon hit flux per tube. The tube length is \unit{1}{m}. The efficiency defined as the probablity to find a hit on the extrapolated track within $3\sigma$ of the tube spatial resolution. Electronics with and without baseline restoration (BLR) are compared. The curves are from a detailed simulation of detector and electronics response~\cite{cite:bittner}.}
\label{fig:efficiency}
\end{figure}
Figure~\ref{fig:efficiency} shows the muon detection efficiency of MDT and sMDT as a function of the photon hit flux per tube, where the tube length is \unit{1}{m} and the efficiency is defined as the probablity to find a hit on the extrapolated track within $3\sigma$ of the tube spatial resolution. The improvement of sMDT over MDT is noticeable. However, the performance of the sMDT is limited by the read-out electronics, which suffers from signal pile-up effects of consecutive hits. Detailed simulation of detector and electronics response show that pile-up effects can be mitigated with an improved electronics.

\includegraphics[width=0.9\columnwidth]{resolution}
\caption{Spatial resolution of drift tubes as a function of the background hit rate for MDT and sMDT using signal shaping with and without baseline restoration (BLR). The markers represent the measurements at the GIF, while the lines are produced using a full simulation of the drift tube response including read-out electronics~\cite{cite:bittner}.}
\label{fig:resolution}
\end{figure}
Similarly, Figure~\ref{fig:resolution} shows the advantage of the sMDT against the MDT for the spatial resolution of a single tube as a function of the background hit flux. While the MDT strongly depends on the photon hit flux, the sMDT distribution is almost independent. Further improvements can be achieved using a modified electronics, as shown by a full simulation. 

\section{Fast baseline restoration}
\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.7\columnwidth]{pileup}
\caption{Illustration of signal pile-up effects with bipolar shaping  at high counting rates. The individual pulses are shown in read and blue, while the superposition of the two is shown in black. The signal pile-up leads to a reduction of the amplitude of successive hits and a jitter in the drift-time measurement.}
\label{fig:pileup}
\end{figure}
With the much shorter maximum drift time of the sMDT compared to the MDT, the deadtime of the read-out electronics can be reduced from about \unit{700}{ns} for the MDT to \unit{200}{ns} for the sMDT. However, the improvement of the muon detection efficiency and spatial resolution at high counting rates is limited by the existing read-out electronics of the MDT. The 8-channel analog front-end chip for amplification, shaping and discrimination of the signal (ASD) employs a bipolar shaping to guarantee baseline stability. The typical baseline restoration time is in the order of \unit{500}{ns}, well below the drift time of the MDT, but significantly longer than the drift time of the sMDT. For photon hit rates in the order of $10\,\mathrm{kHz}/\mathrm{cm}^{2}$, the average interval between two consequtive hits in a muon tube is about $1\,\upmu\mathrm{s}$, which exhibits a significant probablity for signal pile-up in the interval from \unit{200}{ns} to \unit{500}{ns} after the first hit. Figure~\ref{fig:pileup} illustrates the problem. The signal pile-up during the undershoot leads to a reduction of the amplitude of successive hits and a jitter in the drift-time measurement or even a complete loss of signal if the reduced amplitude is below threshold.

% \begin{figure}[tb]
% \centering
% \includegraphics[width=0.4\columnwidth]{blr_diode}
% \caption{Schematics of a baseline restoration using a diode.}
% \label{fig:blr_diode}
% \end{figure}
A concept to suppress the signal pile-up during the undershoot is the fast baseline restoration (BLR). 
% Figure~\ref{fig:blr_diode} shows a simple implementation of BLR using a diode. 
In a simple circuit of a BLR~\cite{cite:seattle}, the signal is sent through two capacitors $C_1$ and $C_2$, where a diode in reverse direction is connected to ground in between.
The diode current $I_\mathrm{base}$ sets a positive working point between $C_1$ and $C_2$. For positive input signals, the working point is further increased, and no current is drawn in reverse direction of the diode. Hence the signal remains unchanged. Negative input signals, however, shift the working point into the conducting region of the diode, leading to a fast restoration of the signal baseline.

\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.7\columnwidth]{noblr}\\
\vspace{3mm}
\includegraphics[width=0.7\columnwidth]{blr}
\caption{Signals from an sMDT tube read out without (top) and with (bottom) baseline restoration (BLR)~\cite{cite:blr}.}
\label{fig:blr}
\end{figure}
An implementation of the BLR has been tested in a setup with an sMDT chamber at the GIF facility~\cite{cite:blr}. The discrete circuit consists of components similar to the existing ASD chip, but with an additional BLR stage between shaping and discrimination, and a slightly improved peaking time. In Figure~\ref{fig:blr}, the signal is shown after pre-amplification with a gain of $10^{5}$, and after the BLR stage. The BLR is activated applying a diode current $I_\mathrm{base}$. Comparing the shaped signal with and without activated BLR, it can be seen that the time to restore the baseline is reduced by a factor of two.
This demonstrates that with an improved read-out electronics, the shorter drift time for sMDT can be fully exploited.

\section{Chamber Design and Construction}
The chamber design and construction procedures have been optimized for mass production while providing a precision of better than 10 micrometers in the sense wire positions and the mechanical stability required to cover large areas. The design of the sMDT chambers profits from the long experience with the MDT chambers in ATLAS and provides even higher reliability. 

The tube design uses industrial components on one hand (e.g. standard Al tubes), and dedicated machined components that can be easily manufactured at high precision on the other. The central component is the wire locator in the sealing end, consisting of an inner part inside the tube, and an outer part which provides a reference surface. Both feature a very small tolerance, which allows to measure the sense wire position of the assembled tube with an accuracy of a few micrometer. 

\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering

\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.9\columnwidth]{positioning}
\caption{Sense wire position in horizontal direction for a finished sMDT chamber.}
\label{fig:positioning}
\end{figure}
sMDT chambers are under construction for upgrades of the muon spectrometer of the ATLAS detector at the HL-LHC. The drift tube assembly is a semi-automated process with minimal manual intervention. Several sMDT chambers have already been produced and installed for the current LHC data taking. The mechanical precision of the sense wire positions has been measured using the external reference surface (see Fig.~\ref{fig:chamber}). The displacement is found to be $z_\mathrm{RMS}<10\,\upmu\mathrm{m}$ in horizontal and $y_\mathrm{RMS}<15\,\upmu\mathrm{m}$ in vertical direction. Figure~\ref{fig:positioning} shows the according measurement for the vertical displacement. The inherent mechanical precision allows for highly accurate monitoring of the absolute alignment of the chambers in the detector. 

\section{Summary}
Future colliders will put stringent requirements on muon detectors in terms of efficiency, spatial resolution, rate capabilities and radiation hardness. The sMDT chambers are a well-suited technology for large-area precision muon tracking at high background rates. Results from the GIF measurement show that sMDT provide both, the required spatial resolution and efficiency, as well as the rate capabilities and radiation hardness. The assembly process have been optimized for mass production and show an excellent mechanical precision. Hence, sMDT represent a cost-effective technology for large detector areas and and are a perfect candidate for future hadron colliders.
