Characteristics of the Self-Quenching Streamer Mode in a Gas Counter

Year: 1984

Type: article

Abstract: The characteristics of the electron avalanche of the self-quenching streamer mode in a cylindrical counter filled with an argon-methane-ethanol mixture were measured as functions of the concentration of ethanol (another quenching gas), the diameter of the anode wire and the incident X-ray energy. New systematics in generation of the streamer were obtained.
