Das Zählrohr besteht in der Regel aus einem beidseitig abgeschlossenen Rohrstück, welches entweder aus einem elektrisch leitenden Material (Metall), oder aus elektrisch isolierendem Material (z.B. Glas), das jedoch innen elektrisch leitend beschichtet sein muss, hergestellt ist. In seinem Inneren befindet sich von der elektrisch leitfähigen Außenwand isoliert ein dünner Zähldraht. Dabei stellt der besagte Zähldraht die Anode, das Zählrohrgehäuse die Kathode dar. Befüllt ist der Zwischenraum mit einem Zählgas, welches das eigentliche Detektorvolumen (für Korpuskelstrahlung) darstellt. Weiterhin unterscheidet man mehrere Bautypen von ... |

With ambitious shaft projects, its own cableway connection to Bexbach, and remarkable geological features – including fossil discoveries and natural oil seepages – the mine reflects both the rise of industrial progress and the dangers of underground work. Gas explosions, water ingress, and tragic accidents shaped the lives of thousands of miners. Frankenholz remains a compelling reminder of a bygone mining era. |

Thus from about 1240, the tin deposits (with the beginnings of subsurface mining also silver) around Ehrenfriedersdorf was mined. By finding rich silver adits in the 2nd third of the 15th Century the great mountain towns like Schneeberg (municipal law since 1477) and Annaberg (municipal law since 1496) was founded.
