Abstract
THE relative ionisations produced in different gases by beams of X-rays have been found by many investigators to depend so markedly on the penetrating power of the X-rays used that no regularity in behaviour has been discovered (see Mr. Crowther's paper “On the Passage of Röntgen Rays through Gases and Vapours,” Roy. Soc. Proc., January 14).
