Abstract
An indirectly heated cathode incorporated in a gas discharge tube with a discharge current of 0.2 to 0.4 A has a cathode surface area in a range of 10 to 30 mm.sup.2. A cathode cylinder is made of molybdenum, nickel or alloy thereof. A heater coated with alumina for insulation is inserted into the cylinder in such a manner that the distance between the heater and cylinder is 0.1 mm or less, and coil gaps of the heater are set to 0.15 mm or less. Alternatively, the space between the heater and cylinder is filled with alumina. As a result, the ratio of a heat quantity by forced heating to a heat quantity for starting discharge is made 0.3 or less.
