Abstract
An X-ray calorimeter has been used to determine the total energy transported by bremsstrahlung beams with maximum photon energies between 18.2 and 170 Mev. The measurements from two experiments have been used to calibrate an aluminum ionization chamber for routine determinations of total beam energy. The calibrations are compared with calibrations of the same chamber made with a scintillation spectrometer, and with calorimetric calibrations made in other laboratories.Keywords
