Summary
For the determination of the efficiency of quanta detection in proportional counters, integrals have been deduced and tabulated for some special geometrical arragements; an experimental investigation of the wall effect in argon has been carried out for quanta of energies up to 50 keV.
Riassunto
Si ricavano e si tabulano gli integrali necessari per la determinazione dell’efficienza di rivelazione dei quanti nei contatori proporzionali. Il contributo dell’effetto parete in argon è studiato sperimentalmente per quanti di energia fino a 50 keV.
