The time response function of spark counters and RPCs
The fluctuation theory for the avalanche growth with and without space charge effects is briefly summarized and compared to a broad field of applications. These include spark counters as well as timing and trigger RPCs operated in avalanche mode. A large domain in electrical field strength, pressure, gap size and gas mixture type is covered. A reasonable agreement with the experiment is observe...

INTRODUCTION In the seven months since the discovery of the 3 particles we have been systematically studying their properties and decays at SPEAR. We have learned a great deal and most, but not all, of the pieces seem to be falling into place. I will review today the determination of the widths and quantum.numhers of these particles and the ongoing study of their decay modes. I will also +repor...
متن کاملQuantum decoherence of single-photon counters.
The interaction of a quantum system with the environment leads to the so-called quantum decoherence. Beyond its fundamental significance, the understanding and the possible control of this dynamics in various scenarios is a key element for mastering quantum information processing. Here we report the quantitative probing of what can be called the quantum decoherence of detectors, a process remin...
متن کاملProportional Counters as Low Energy Photon Detectors
We have investigated the response of an argon-methane proportional counter to monochromatic X-rays in the range 99-277 eV . The apparent nonlinearities in mean pulse height as a function of photon energy and the detailed shape of the pulse height distribution for each energy can be predicted quite precisely using the extensive atomic data available for argon. Based on this understanding, we pro...
متن کاملOptimal Integral State Feedback Control of HCCI Combustion Timing
Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engines hold promise of high fuel efficiency and low emission levels for future green vehicles. But in contrast to gasoline and diesel engines, HCCI engines suffer from lack of having direct means to initiate combustion. A combustion timing controller with robust tracking performance is the key requirement to leverage HCCI application in production ...
