Description
The spherical ionization chamber under pressure is designed for the secondary calibration of alpha, beta and gamma radioactive sources. We can measure very low activity of such sources by placing them inside the ionization chamber and using air or krypton and xenon gases up to a pressure of 10 Atm. The ionization chamber is made of two hemispherical metallic electrodes polarized with 100-500 V d.c. (authors)
