Abstract: (Elsevier)
An ionization chamber is designed to monitor the composition of the gas mixture of BESIII muon chambers, with the energy spectrum of 5.9 keV X-ray of the 55 Fe radioactive source. The high voltage, source strength and temperature dependence have been carefully studied to acquire stable operation of the gas monitor.
