A detector for detection of ionizing radiation comprises a cathode; an anode; an ionizable gas arranged between these electrodes; a radiation entrance arranged such that ionizing radiation can enter and ionize the ionizable gas; and a readout arrangement. A voltage across the electrodes causes electrons created during ionization of the gas to drift towards the anode, where the readout arrangement detects them. To reduce the risk of occurrence of sparks, and/or to reduce the energy in occurring sparks, one of the cathode and anode has at least the surface layer facing the other electrode made of a material having a resistivity of at least 5x10-8 OMEGAm.
