Scientific paper

The state of the art of the existing position sensitive multiwire proportional counters (PSMWPC) will be briefly reviewed. In particular taking into account the contribution these detectors have already made to our knowledge of the X-ray sky and the expected future steps that will only be possible with new detector development. Finally a new design of multiwire proportional counter will be described. The new generation of this kind of PSMWPC detectors, when operated with a modulating mask or a single grid rotation modulation collimator or, in the future, with a combination of these two techniques will provide images of the high-energy sky with an angular resolution of l min of arc.
