Abstract :
The paper attempts to relate the important parameters observed in channelled electron multiplication to the physical processes involved. Ionic feedback and the effect of channel geometry on it are discussed. Saturation effects occurring in straight channels and curved channels are described and the different pulse height distributions are contrasted.
