Abstract
Results from a prototype high-pressure xenon gas scintillation drift chamber using a novel wave-shifter fiber readout scheme are presented. The primary scintillation light yield was measured to be one photon per 76+or-12 eV deposited energy. Initial results on the chamber are presented for two-interaction separation (Keywords
