Improving the performance of the MWPC X-ray imaging detector by means of the multi-step avalanche technique

Abstract

X-ray imaging systems based on conventional MWPC technology and artificial delay line readout techniques have been developed at RAL for several applications over a period of some eight years. Successful as this effort has been, it is now perceived that very limited scope exists for the further improvement of the imaging capability of the standard MWPC design. Attention has therefore been turned to the possibility of exploiting the multi-step …
