Abstract

The influence of admixture of bromine in the neon gas filling of the counter on the discharge mechanism and the threshold oscillations origin is discussed. The theory of threshold oscillations origin is experimentally verificated by measuring the maximum time of metastable neon atoms existence in the counter and by determining the counter dead time in the region of threshold voltages. The counter dead time is found to be shorter than the maximum time of metastable neon atoms existence in the counter, thus it seems possible to explain the threshold oscillation origin by slow build-up of the discharge. The filling apparatus and the electronics employed in the measurements are described. The figures of pulse forms at the threshold voltages are also presented.
