Abstract

The aforementioned problems arose in connection with the automatic ionization chamber described previously (1). It was fund that the functioning of these instruments was more consistent if the ion chamber was baked at 350°C for several hours and then filled with pure argon. This procedure resulted in the elimination of organic impurities from the inner surfaces. The impurities, settling on the gold-coated quartz fiber and the collector, apparently altered the contact, resulting in some uncertainty in the recharging. The baking procedure has completely curved this difficulty.
