Abstract
A detailed review is given on the use of BaF 2 with a low-pressure, photosensitive wire chamber readout. New results are presented on the pulse shapes in various modes of operation, the ability to work in magnetic fields and at high rates, and the detection capabilities of these devices for photons of ≤1 MeV. A discussion is also given of the aspects of using a system of detectors of this type on a large scale for high-energy and nuclear physics experiments.
