ionization chamber

This is much the same as an ionization chamber in particle physics.

The ionization chamber has found wide and beneficial use in smoke detectors.

Several, typically four, ionization chambers were located around the experimental setup.

The most common means of detecting radioactivity is to measure these emissions using an ionization chamber.

It consists of a sealed air-filled cylinder called an ionization chamber.

When slid to the open position, beta particles are allowed to directly penetrate the ionization chamber.

To remain with the familiar picture, the narrow cones are nothing more than ionization chambers consisting of solid matter.

This consisted of a simple ionization chamber with an electrode running down the center, but no electroscope for reading.

Ionization chambers operate at a low electric field strength, selected such that no gas multiplication takes place.

The distribution of power density in the reactor is measured by ionization chambers located inside and outside the core.

Ionization chambers and Geiger counters were first adapted for field use in the 1930s.

This occurs in the detector's ionization chamber where it produces charged particles or ions.

An ionization chamber with full track reconstruction capabilities for studying reactions of astrophysical importance.

The output of a column can be feed directly into the ionization chamber of the mass spectrometer.

A wide range of ionization chamber, film badge, and thermoluminescent personal dosimeters are available.

Total reactor power is recorded as the sum of the currents of the lateral ionization chambers.

An ionization chamber measures the charge from the number of ion pairs created within a gas caused by incident radiation.

The detectors had to provide high speed and large area; fast ionization chambers, then under development, were the only devices then available satisfying the requirements.

With the beta shield closed, only gammas can penetrate both the shield and ionization chamber.

These peaks result from ions with lifetimes shorter than the time needed to traverse the distance between ionization chamber and the detector.

The radioactive decay can be detected through an ionization chamber or autoradiographs of gels.

On the basis of these investigations, Allen and Rossi invented the "fast ionization chamber", which they patented after the war.

A Sievert chamber is a type of ionization chamber used in radiation dose measurements.

Prosthetic devices such as total hip hardware can also cause the selected ionization chamber to overexpose the image receptor.

This is due to the absorption of the x-ray beam into the metal of the hardware as opposed to exposing the ionization chamber.
