Self quenching streamer mode in quenching gases initiated by alpha particles | | Yu.I. Davydov

28 Apr 2009 | | Abstract: | The transition from a proportional to a self quenching streamer mode, as a
function of track length and angle, was investigated in a single wire chamber
filled with either pure DME or isobutane. The chamber was irradiated with
$^{241}$Am alpha particles. An investigation of multistreamer events in DME due
to alpha particles entering the chamber at 20$^circ$ with track length 4 mm
gave an estimate of a dead zone, defined as the product of dead length and dead
time, to be less than 0.1 $mu$s$cdot$cm. This value is 3 orders of magnitude
less than those observed by other groups for noble gases based mixtures. No
second streamers were observed with pure isobutane for similar tracks. | | Source: | arXiv, 0904.4421 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
