The Postproportional Regime of the Gas Amplication in the Cylindrical Detectors
Protvino, 2006. - p. 17, figs. 13, refs.: 13.


The regime of the excess current amplification in cylindrical gas detectors is considered as a time sequence of three modes of the amplification - the proportional regime, the space-charge saturation and the self-quenching streamer (SQS). The probability of the transmission from the space-charge saturation to the SQS-regime is depended on the specific ionization of the primary particles, on the using gas mixture and on the anode diameter. The suggested mechanism of the gas amplification agrees with the main experimental results. The examples of the perspective use of detectors in the SQS-regime are presented.
