PULSE HEIGHT CALCULATIONS FOR A PARALLEL PLATE IONIZATION CHAMBER CONTAINING ELECTRON ATTACHING GASES
When the pulse from a parallel plate electrode ionization chamber containing an attaching gas is examined with a linear pulse amplifier having the proper integration and differentiation time constants, the pulse height is an anslytic function of the attachment coefficient and the electron drift velocity. The expressions for the pulse height as a function of the partial pressure of the attaching gas, electron drift velocity, attachment coefficient, chamber geometry, and amplifier time constants are evaluated and presented in tabular form.
