The spherical drift chamber for x-ray imaging applications

Properties of proportional chambers with spherical drift spaces have been investigated. An experiment of X-ray diffraction in crystals shows that an accuracy of 0.5 mm, at 20 degrees inclination with respect to the axis of the chamber, can be obtained with 4 cm of drift length. Such chambers have ma...

description Properties of proportional chambers with spherical drift spaces have been investigated. An experiment of X-ray diffraction in crystals shows that an accuracy of 0.5 mm, at 20 degrees inclination with respect to the axis of the chamber, can be obtained with 4 cm of drift length. Such chambers have many applications: X-ray diffraction patterns, pin-hole imaging, angular distributions of cascades of X- rays in nuclear physics, etc. (4 refs).
