Abstract
The chemical effects of x-rays on aqueous solutions of chloral hydrate (CCl3CH(OH)2) have been studied. The primary reaction is the conversion of the organic halogen to HCl and the resulting changes in electrical conductance have been used for the determination of x-ray dosage. The change in conductance is linear with x-ray dose and independent of dose-rate over a wide range. This compound has been used to determine the total output and depth-dose curves from a high intensity beryllium window x-ray tube.
