Abstract

This paper is a description of further measurements of electron mobilities in a self-quenching Geiger-Müller counter containing various mixtures of argon and alcohol. The electron mobility in a mixture of 90 mm argon and 10 mm alcohol vapour is found to be 15,700 ± 5 per cent., the mobility in 100 mm alcohol vapour (extrapolated), 1640 ± 5 per cent. cm/sec per volt/cm. For the range of alcohol pressures covered, viz 1.5 to 27 mm (100 mm total pressure) the cross-section of argon is negligible but for the very lowest pressures. Results are summarizad in fig. 5.
