Respuesta :
The average percent increase in the count rate over the voltage range of the Geiger tube plateau is less than 10 percent per 100 volts.
Geiger tubes are the sensing elements of Geiger counters, which are used to measure ionizing radiation. This tube is made of a thin-walled stainless steel and is filled with a mixture of Neon and Halogen gases at low-pressure
The Geiger–Müller tube is filled with an inert gas such as helium, neon, or argon at low pressure, to which a high voltage is applied. The tube briefly conducts electrical charge when a particle or photon of incident radiation makes the gas conductive by ionization.
After the quick rise, the counting rate levels off. This range of voltages is termed the ”plateau” region. Eventually, the voltage becomes too high and we have continuous discharge. The threshold voltage is the voltage where the plateau region begins.
For a good G-M tube, the plateau region should rise at a rate less than 10 percent per 100 volts. That is, for a change of 100 volts, should be less than 0.1.
