About this document
GM Counter Experiment and Analysis by Jamil is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This experiment aims to characterize a Geiger-Muller tube using a GM counter without a radioactive source. The objectives are to determine the plateau and operating voltage, resolving time, and efficiency. The apparatus includes a GM tube, holder, timer-scalar, power supply, and voltage/count knobs. Procedure involves connecting the GM tube to the counter, taking background counts at increasing voltages, and plotting a graph of count rate versus voltage to determine threshold, plateau slope, and background
