Abstract :
A radiation hard, compact, ion chamber detector system is described. The chambers are planar, with narrow gaps, and are filled with nitrogen gas. They operated at a signal rate equivalent to ∼2×108 minimum ionizing tracks per cm2, delivered in pulses 250 ns long, while monitoring an intense scattered electron flux.
