Description
A New Small Wheel (NSW) is a new innermost part of the ATLAS muon end-cap system which will be installed in the ATLAS detector during forthcoming Phase-I upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. It consists of small-strip Thin Gap Chambers (sTGC) and Micromegas chambers which were designed to sustain large particle fluxes during Super LHC operation. In order to ensure a high production quality of NSW chambers a method which uses X-ray irradiation scanner is proposed. The scanning technique offers identification of the technological defects which are vital for the chamber operation at high particle rate before the installation to the detector.
