a.. Study of the sensitivity, quality dependence, anc

b. A cross-calibration study.

.
Some 15 different AEC installations participated, and the [findings
show that most of these installations are able to get a fair ddgree of
‘precision in measuring and interpreting gammaand x-ray radiation doses
over a Wide range of energies and intensities.
The survey hasfbeen im-
portant in pointing out areas where improvements may be initiajfed in order
to reauce inaccuracies in filmdosimeter measurements. |

Testing of Radioactive Electric Cells.

Pre-
liminary results indicate that the load characteristics are bekter than
those claimed by the manufacturer.
However, the voltage of thhk

when no load is applied shcwed seme cependence on humidity ccenpitions.
It is expected that electric cells cf the racioactive scurce
