“…While a technical staff was in charge of the chamber's construction, the delicate but tedious work of winding the miniature coils used to detect the sonic pulse on the acoustic sensing wire was a task for the young students. The results of the test beam measurements of efficiency and position accuracy with a set of detectors are described in my first publication (Bradamante and Sauli, 1967); I can be seen in in Figure 1.4 working on the experimental setup, a fixed target experiment to study proton-proton and proton-deuteron interactions at (for that time) high energies.…”

Widely used in high-energy and particle physics, gaseous radiation detectors are undergoing continuous development. The first part of this book provides a solid background for understanding the basic processes leading to the detection and tracking of charged particles, photons, and neutrons. Continuing then with the development of the multi-wire proportional chamber, the book describes the design and operation of successive generations of gas-based radiation detectors, as well as their use in experimental physics and other fields. Examples are provided of applications for complex events tracking, particle identification, and neutral radiation imaging. Limitations of the devices are discussed in detail. Including an extensive collection of data and references, this book is ideal for researchers and experimentalists in nuclear and particle physics.
