Abstract :
Gas amplification factors, over the range 1 to ∼105 were measured for the mixtures of Xe/CO2, Xe/CO2/O2 and Xe/CO2/N2 as the function of the applied voltage for straw tubes geometry. Special attention was put to the transition from proportional mode to self-quenching streamer and corona discharge.
