Description

Experiments on self quenching streamer discharge in cylindrical tube and wire chamber are performed, and an interpretation of SQS mechanism is proposed. The excited atoms or molecules created in the latent track and subsequent avalanche play an important role, they form the main photo-electron source and the interaction between them is also possibly a source of ionizing photon. A formula that describe the jump and streamer charge is deduced. The effect of electric field of the space charge is computed. The comparisons between theory and experiments are made
