Abstract
Walled and wall-less tissue-equivalent cylindrical proportional counters of unit elongation have been constructed and their performance extensively studied and compared with that expected from the theory of conventional proportional counter. The difference in behaviour between the walled and wall-less counters as regards energy resolution, gas gain, sensitive volume etc., is attributed to the wide grid structure of the latter. The transit time of single electrons released from the cathode walls by UV light has been measured in tissue-equivalent gas as a function of E/ p for working pressures of 81, 57, 30 and 20 torr.
