Energy dependence of correction factors for two models of Keithley diagnostic ion chambers

The energy dependence for each of two models of ionization chambers compatible with the Keithley model 35020 Digital Dosimeter, is determined by measurement of the exposure correction factors determined over the diagnostic x-ray range (0.4--4.9 mm AL HVL) for several for several samples of each model. The results of an analysis of variance performed by model on the correction factors are reported as mean correction factors for the x-ray beams evaluated, with a relative standard error of less than 1% for both cases. Energy-dependence curves for the two chamber models are given, and their use is described.
