Previous results on the azimuthal localization of punctual interactions using the self-quenching streamer (SQS) mode, as given by the direction of the SQS avalanche, have shown a marked improvement in resolution when the current pulses are integrated for short times. In this work, data concerning the position resolution along the wire in the SQS mode for the argon-48% isobutane mixture, using a 55Fe source, are presented. Essentially the same effect was detected: the FWHM, larger than 500 μm for the total signal duration, is reduced to about 300 μm for a 10 ns gate. This improvement in position resolution is practically independent of the anode voltage, all along the plateau.
