IWTRD Cheile Gradistei 24-28.09.05 C. Garabatos, GSI14 Measurements with X-ray tube (F. Uhlig, G. Hamar)
15
IWTRD Cheile Gradistei 24-28.09.05 C. Garabatos, GSI15 Measurements with X-rays Possibility to measure rate dependence on gas gain and gas composition Need careful calibration and extrapolation to charged particles Easy Same set-up will be used for ageing tests
16
IWTRD Cheile Gradistei 24-28.09.05 C. Garabatos, GSI16 Results with Argon Fit to Mathieson's formula ln(G/G 0 )/G = K R The constant K characterises the chamber and the gas Next: Xenon
