Time Of Flight Method

Experiments to test the influence of end effects on electron drift velocity measurements by the Bradbury-Nielsen time-of-flight method are described. A comparison of data taken at drift distances of 5, 10, and 50 cm in hydrogen and 5 and 10 cm in helium shows that over the EIN and pressure ranges investigated the results are independent of drift distance and that it is justifiable to consider this distance as that between the mid planes of the grids which terminate the drift chamber.
