摘要：

Multiwire gas proportional detectors have been used for many years on synchrotron radiation experiments and offer unrivaled dynamic range and detection efficiency but have been somewhat limited in count rate performance. We report here recent test results from two new rapid data acquisition systems developed at Daresbury and in addition the results of comparative tests on a new design of gas detector, the Microgap, and a gas Microstrip detector. Both designs appear capable of high rate > 100 kHz/mm2 operation and combined with the new acquisition systems should begin to alleviate the count rate problems for some types of experiment.
