Cathode charge distributions in multiwire chambers. Pt.3

A brief account is given of a method for the accurate calculation of the cathode charge distribution in a direction parallel to the anode wires of a multiwire proportional chamber. It is shown that for most normal operating conditions there is no difference of practical significance between this distribution and that measured orthogonal to the anode wires. Comparative examples of the two distributions are shown under conditions which attempt to emphasise their difference. (orig.)
