An Automatic Ionization Chamber
The ionization chamber described herein has the following characteristics: 1. It recharges itself after having collected a definite charge. 2. It generates a pulse at the instant of recharging that is easily amplified electronically. 3. The constant of the ionization chamber is independent of the co...
