Incorporating a Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) provides a model independent energy measurement complementary to the calorimeter, as well as additional track reconstruction capability. A new TRD design provides a compact, robust, reliable, low density detector to measure incident nucleus energy for 3 < Z < 26 nuclei in the Lorentz gamma factor range of 10 2 -10 5. The TRD design, R&D;, construction milestones, beam test results and a progress of the final TRD integration in the CREAM instrument are reported.</dc:description><dc:date>2018-06-16T04:17:05Z</dc:date><dc:source>http://cds.cern.ch/record/2624408</dc:source><dc:doi>10.7529/ICRC2011/V06/1223</dc:doi><dc:identifier>http://cds.cern.ch/record/2624408</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>oai:inspirehep.net:1352570</dc:identifier></dc:dc> </collection>
