Scientific paper
A driftless imaging gas scintillation proportional counter intended as a focal plane detector for one of the two high-throughput XSPECT concentrator aboard the Soviet-Danish Spectr-Roentgen-Gamma satellite has been built. In this paper, energy and position resolution measurements obtained with this detector at several X-ray energies are reported. For example, values of 16.0 percent and 1.9 mm FWHM energy and position resolution have been measured at an energy of 1487 eV. Some present limitations of the counter are discussed, and future devlopments are outlined.
