Abstract

1444278 lonization counters BALL BROS RESEARCH CORP 29 Aug 1973 [17 May 1973] 40560/73 Heading H1D A position sensitive multiwire proportional counter comprises a plurality of spaced anode wires 16 carried by a support 11 and a continuous cathode wire 20 which acts as a delay line. The anode wires 16 extending between opposite sides of the frame 11 are connected in common by a lead 17 to a terminal 18. The cathode wire 20 may be wound continuously around the insulating frame 11 and connected to terminals 22 and 23 or alternatively may be wound on a separate frame mounted parallel to the anode array. The cathode wire may be othogonal to the anode wires as shown or at any other desired angle. Ground planes 13 and 14 are provided and the counter is filled with gas e.g. argon and methane mixed in a ratio of 9 : 1. A voltage induced in the cathode wire 20 by a discharge produced by incident radiation is time-analysed by a known circuit (Fig. 6, not shown) to provide an indication of the position of the radiation.
