Ionometric Half Value Layer Meter for Measurements of the Quality of X-Rays [PDF]
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung A, 1951 Abstract An instrument is described which permits the measurement of the quality of X-rays in terms of the half value layer (HVL) of a suitable filter material. It consists of two ionization chambers adjustable in volume, which are connected in opposition and linked with an X-ray dose measuring device.
