Application of the classical theory of electrons in gases to multiwire proportional and drift chambers
Abstract
The classical theory of electrons in gases and some of its results are reviewed which may be useful in the design of multiwire proportional and drift chambers. Especially discussed are how to obtain low diffusion and constant drift velocity in certain gas mixtures, and the multiplication process.
