An aluminum ionization chamber was constructed at the NBS to measure the intensities of bremsstrahlung. The calibration values obtained for it are tabulated. An identical ionization chamber was used at the Msx Planck Institut fur Biophysik in conjunction with a total-absorbing calorimeter The results obtained with the German instrument were compared with those of the NBS, The comparison showed that it is possible to measure absolutely the intensity of energetic bremsstrahlung with a mean error of 1%. The arrangement used for the comparative measurements is shown. (J.S.R.)
