Upgrading of the Naval Research Laboratory's Large Area X-Ray Counters.

Abstract

The tasks in the present project were to (1) evaluate several possible anode wire materials for use in x-ray proportional counters, (2) select the anode material with the best performance, (3) rewire one complete x-ray counter (supplied by NRL), and (4) measure the energy resolution and gas amplification of the rewired counter. These tasks have been completed. (Author)
