25. 29-Feb-16S.Movchan Straw status25 Conclusion Unflammable gas mixture CO2/isoC4H10/CF4 (82:5:13) can be used Straw resolution versus R is reachable by each chip: 200 μm near anode wire and 50-60 μm for R=(3-5) mm Min “effective” threshold for ASD-8 chip is Th=10 fC while for CARIOCA and ASDQ chips min “effective” threshold is Th=30 fC.
