摘要
An overview of wire chamber aging is presented. A history of wire aging studies and the manifestations of wire aging are reviewed. Fundamental chemical principles relating to wire chamber operation are presented, and the dependences of wire aging on certain wire chamber operating parameters are discussed. Aging results from experimental detectors and laboratory experiments are summarized. Techniques for analysis of wire deposits and compositions of such deposits are discussed. Some effects of wire material and gas additives on wire aging are interpreted in chemical terms. A chemical model of wire aging is developed, and similarities of wire chamber plasmas to low-pressure rf-discharge plasmas are suggested. Procedures recommended for reducing wire aging effects are summarized.
