Abstract
In this article it is shown analytically that the charge spectrum generated by ionizing particles in Resistive Plate Chambers under Townsend avalanche conditions, that is, for sufficiently small avalanches not affected by space-charge and considering single-electron ionization clusters follows closely the statistical gamma distribution. This distribution describes well comparable simulation data taken from the literature, but seems to describe as well experimental data measured beyond these assumptions, rising some interpretation issues.
