Abstract

The energy resolution on electrons from a ²⁰⁷Bi source is measured in a multiwire chamber filled with the room-temperature liquid tetramethylsilane. The contribution of the ultra-low-noise electronics to the energy resolution is 16 keV (rms). The physical resolution is found to be 36.8 keV (rms) for the 976 keV conversion electron line, with an electric field of 3.5 kVcm^-1. Results on the free electron yield in the liquid are also given.
