(2,3) Figure 1 shows our single-wire Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory University of California chaITlber design, and Fig. 2 shows the pulse height of the 279-keV Berkeley, California 94720 photopeak as a function of operating voltage for 2.9-, 3.5-, and 5.0-tJ. and anode wires. The chamber counts well and the pulse-height curves R. A. Muller are reproducible to ± 100/0 every time the chamber is filled.
