He3 corona tube + oscillocope
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2014 5:36 am
hi there,
I want to test my He3 tube (CHM32) by hooking it up to a power supply limited to 2400V (diode in reverse) and 25µA (10MOhm resistor) and wait for background impulses.
How should I connect the oscilloscope?
Would a simple voltage divider probe be sensitive enough?
Should I connect a capacitor and limit voltage to the oscilloscope with a diode?
Is it better to measure Delta-I by connecting the tube with inductive coupling to the oscilloscope?
TIA
Tom
