Abstract
This paper presents experimental results of dynamic breakdown voltage and delay response as functions of gamma ray air kerma rate for xenon-filled tube at 2.7mbar pressure. Gamma ray air kerma rate range was considered from 123nGy h-1 up to 12.3mGy h-1 in order to investigate the possibility of the application of this tube in gamma radiation dosimetry. It was shown that the variations of the above-mentioned parameters are considerable up to the dose rate of 1.23μGy h-1, which points to the possibility for application in small dose rate gamma ray dosimetry. Physical processes that make dominant impact to dynamic breakdown voltage and delay response during xenon-filled tube irradiation are also discussed in the paper.
