AbstractAbstract
[en] A transition radiation detector (TRD) for the identification of prompt electrons in one of the proposed LEP detectors is planned. Tests to be described in the paper show that rather little space is required for such a TRD to achieve a π/e rejection of at least 20:1 at 95% acceptance for electrons with momenta in excess of approx. 2 GeV/c. Combining the TRD with an additional electromagnetic shower calorimeter in the LEP detector, a total hadron rejection of the order of 103:1 or better can be obtained
