The relative efficiencies of thimble ionization chambers made of plexiglas, aluminum, copper, cadmium, and lead were determined by measuring the angular distributron and energy spectra of secondary electrons knocked on from the above materials by Cs137 and Co60 gamma rays. Measurements were made on a 270 deg magnetic spectrometer with a uniform magnetic field. A special turning arrangement and a system of lead collimators permitted investigations of the electron spectra knocked on by gamma rays from the source at 0, 15, Relative efficiencies of ionization chambers made of various materials for quanta at 1250 to 662 kev are tabulated.
