Proportional counter with uniform electric field with Penning's mixture

  • 1. Politechnika Warszawska (Poland). Inst. Radioelektroniki

Description

Some calculations are given and the design of proportional counters with a homogeneous electric field filled with Penning's mixtures, which ensure the best energy resolution is described. The counters with mixtures of Ne+Ar, Ne+CH4, Ne+CO2 and Ar+C2H2 have been checked. The admixtures (Ar, CH4, CO2, C2H2) constitute from 0.1 to 2%, with pressure from 125 Tr to 760 Torr. The best energy resolution has been obtained for the mixture of Ne+1%CH4 at the pressure of 190 Torr
