摘要
The electron multiplication and its statistics in the Penning mixtures in the uniform electric field is studied. The variance of the gas amplification is calculated for the Ne-Ar mixtures (0.1 % and 1 % Ar) as a function of the electric field strength. The effect of the diffusion of the metastable atoms on the statistics of the multiplication is shown to be small in weak electric fields.
