Abstract

The problems of dose measurements of fast electrons are briefly discussed. A series of new depth dose curves in water is presented for electrons of energies between 10 and 30 Mev. The value of the curves is compared with other published sets. Chemical dose measurements carried out on liquid systems do not indicate any decrease of converted energy with increasing electron energy. The transfer of energy traceable by measurements of photographic densities under irradiation with fast electrons is caused by contribution from scatter, which is difficult to detect by conventional dose measuring methods.
