Abstract :
Large, saturated, fast pulses of the type referred to as "self quenching streamer" have been observed in thick anode wire chambers filled with a variety of highly quenching gas mixtures. This mode of operation has been studied as a function of voltage, gas mixture and pressure, and chamber geometry.
