Abstract :
The need to understand surface and space charging of microstrip gas chambers requires a study of transverse diffusion for inhomogeneous electric fields. A differential equation is deduced for the time dependence of the root-mean-square dispersion of the distribution of drifting charges. Its solution yields estimates of electron clouds approaching the anodes, and of ion clouds leaving them. Comparisons to measurements are presented.
