李德平 %A 仇士华 %J 物理学报 %D 1958 %I %X Measurements of the pressure-rise in G-M counters filled with argon and alcohol indicate that, corresponding to each ion pair produced in the discharge, the increase in number of gaseous molecules due to alcohol decomposition, lies between 5 to 10. This number increases as the overvoltage is lowered. Thus the counting life of a counter can not be expressed merely in terms of quantity of electric charge passing through it.Some possible explanations are discussed. %U http://www.alljournals.cn/get_abstract_url.aspx?pcid=6E709DC38FA1D09A4B578DD0906875B5B44D4D294832BB8E&cid=47EA7CFDDEBB28E0&jid=29DF2CB55EF687E7EFA80DFD4B978260&aid=6F328339BD32C94B&yid=D1DB94C1649032D3&vid=F3583C8E78166B9E&iid=0B39A22176CE99FB&sid=58F693790F887B3B&eid=09E495F616948E78&journal_id=1000-3290&journal_name=物理学报&referenced_num=0&reference_num=0
