Taʼrif	English: Rutherford & Geiger alpha particle counter (1908) Used in early fundamental research on alpha particles. Alpha particles from a source in the firing tube were admitted through aperture "D" to the detecting vessel, which was a brass tube with a central co-axial wire "B" at a relative potential of 1320 volts dc. The aperture had a mica window so the detecting vessel could run at a pressure of 2-5 mm of mercury. These conditions enabled creation of a Townsend avalanche for every alpha particle entering the vessel. At very low count rates these registered as "kicks" on an electrometer needle. The Geiger-Muller tube devised in 1928 used this principle of detection of ionizing radiation using an electron avalanche in a gaseous medium.
