The higher pressure results in a greater gas density and thereby a greater chance of collision with the fill gas and ion-pair creation by incident radiation. The upper disc is extremely thin, allowing for much more accurate near-surface dose measurements than are possible with a cylindrical chamber. The ionization chamber is the simplest type of gaseous ionisation detector, and is widely used for the detection and measurement of many types of ionizing radiation, including X-rays, gamma rays, and beta particles. %PDF-1.5 % S6dCaat2f1Yg^!Q2;_B# "Kl A voltage potential is applied between the electrodes to create an electric field in the fill gas.
