摘要
The influences of wall effects and saturation of the gas multiplication on position resolutions of position-sensitive He-3 proportional counters have been studied by means of numerical calculations, computer simulations and experiments. When the proton produced by the He-3(n,p)t reaction loses its specific energy in a counter wall by wall effects, a good position resolution is obtained escaping from any effects of a finite range of the proton and the triton. In the case where the gas multiplication is saturated, the best position resolution is obtained by selecting low pulse height events that the protons and the tritons move perpendicularly to the anode wire.
