Electrostatic problems in multiwire proportional chambers
Starting from the known complex potential of an infinite grid of thin wires lying between parallel grounded electrodes, the following problems are discussed: 1) the electrostatic coupling between wires, 2) the effect of varying the diameter of a single wire, 3) the effect of displacing a single wire...

description | Starting from the known complex potential of an infinite grid of thin wires lying between parallel grounded electrodes, the following problems are discussed: 1) the electrostatic coupling between wires, 2) the effect of varying the diameter of a single wire, 3) the effect of displacing a single wire. Figures are given which show the magnitude of these effects for a symmetric chamber of arbitrary dimensions. The computer generation of field plots for proportional chambers is briefly discussed. (5 refs). |
