Abstract

The features of the processes of initiation and development of spark discharges in microstructural gas detectors of ionizing radiation in laboratory conditions and on charged-particle beams in accelerators are considered. Such aspects as the Raether charge limit, secondary electron emission, avalanche cross-overlap, positive ion feedback, explosive electron emission, cascading of detectors, and the charge density have been analyzed in detail. The better understanding of these effects will make it possible to make a further step in the development of new-type position-sensitive gas detectors.
