4. The Geiger-Muller Tube
In , particles ionize gas atoms. The tube contains a gas at low pressure. At one end of the tube is a very thin window through which charged particles or gamma rays pass. Inside the tube is a copper cylinder with a negative charge. A rigid wire with a positive charge runs down the center of this cylinder. The voltage across the wire and cylinder
