You are right! Thanks for the insight! I am currently trying the Magboltz program developed at CERN for identifying properties of gases. Seems it does the job. If anyone else is interested they should check it out.

I got data regarding : the number of primary electron pairs per cm, excitation energy, the values in that post from Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables, Vol. 76, No. 2, July 2001. If I only possessed my initial energy (4GeV), the energy loss inside (around 2 keV) and the path (6mm) is there any...

The data I calculated was extracted from different sources treating minimum ionizing particles that revolve around 2 MeV/(g/cm2). Seems I was off. The latest reliable source I found (Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables, Vol. 76, No. 2, July 2001) states that this energy is more like 1.54...

The only values I could found about the mixture are as follows: The number of primary electron pairs per cm: 25.42 The total number of electron-ion pairs per cm: 93.7 Excitation energy: 11.6 eV Ionization energy: 15.7 eV Average energy required to produce electron-ion pairs: 26 eV Now, I know...

I am currently studying the MicroMEGAS detector principle. Ionizing particles traverse the space of around 6 mm of Ar:Co2 mixture in the detector (10x10cm2 x 6mm) like in the picture below. A cosmic muon (4GeV) enters this space and ionizes along its path. I assume the longest path it can take...
