A technique for making the foil electrodes with twosided working surface for spark chambers is described. Some characteristics of spark chambers with thin electrodes are given. The variation of the distance from the negative electrode to the alignment point of a spark with the energy of the detected particles and the angie of their passage through the charaber was studied. It is shown that with the increasing initial density of the gas ionization in the chamber the Townsend coefficient a becomes greater due to the charge interaction of avalanches. (auth)
