Performance of wire-type Rn detectors operated with gas gain in ambient air in view of its possible application to early earthquake predictions
G. Charpak, P. Benaben, P. Breuil +3
We describe a detector of alpha particles based on wire type counters (single-wire and multiwire) operating in ambient air at high gas gains (100-1000). The main advantages of thes…

Development of New Hole-Type Avalanche Detectors and the First Results of their Applications
G. Charpak, P. Benaben, P. Breuil +3
We have developed a new detector of photons and charged particles- a hole-type structure with electrodes made of a double layered resistive material: a thin low resistive layer coa…
