Implication

Randomized trial investigates detection efficiency of protons and electrons using Channeltrons, suggesting insight into performance under various conditions.

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the efficiency and gain behavior of Channeltrons for detecting protons and electrons.
Investigated two type-4013 Bendix Channeltrons as single particle detectors.
Conducted measurements in a vacuum of 10−6 Torr under controlled conditions.
Derivation of an empirical formula for gain dependency on incident electron flux.
Gain decreases over time under electron bombardment, approaching an asymptotic value G∞ based on incident flux.
Empirical formula established as G∞ = (1.3×10^10)/J, where J is the incident flux in electrons per second.
Efficiency for both electrons and protons remains unaffected by gain or specific Channeltron type.
