THE ENERGY RESPONSE OF A VICTOREEN CONDENSER IONIZATION CHAMBER

Journal Article · · Phys. in Med. Biol.
The energy response of a 25-r Victoreen chamber has been measured over the range of photon energies from 40 kev to 1.25 Mev. The difference in response frequently observed between the conventional x-ray region and the gamma-ray region is confirmed. Theoretical response curves for chambers composed of combinations of graphite and heavier elements are compared with the Victoreen curve. (auth)
