Capacity formulas in MWPC: some critical reflexions

Abstract
An approximate analytical expression for "capacitance" of MWPC configurations circulates in the literature since decades and is copied over and over again. In this paper we will try to show that this formula corresponds to a physical quantity that is different from what it is usually thought to stand for.
