  • Abstract
    We have studied gas amplification properties of a proportional tube filled with CO2/isobutane gas mixtures. The gas gain was measured for X- and β-rays as a function of the anode-wire surface field and was used to estimate gain variation along 4.6 m-long stereo anode wires of our proposed central drift chamber for JLC. During the gas gain study, we observed a strong saturation effect for point ionizations.
