Abstract: A study of a compact and cylindrical transition radiation detector is described. A prototype has been built and tested with 40 GeV electrons and hadrons. The measurement have been done using 100 MHz FADC. We have compared different radiators and chamber geometries using various algorithms. The cluster counting and the total integrated charge methods give comparable results. A comparison between radiators of lithium and polypropylene is made.
