摘要：
A problem that occurs with MicroStrip Gas Chambers (MSGCs) is breakdown between the electrodes. We have used two techniques to simulate and study this. The three dimensional electric field has been modelled by a computer simulation in which a finite number of point charges are moved to their equilibrium positions within the electrodes. Secondly, a real 40 x scale model of our MSGC was operated at 1/40th of normal pressure. Results from both techniques lead us to a new shape for the ends of the cathode strips.
