Measurement of replacement factors for a parallel-plate chamber.
We have measured the replacement correction factors (Prepl) for a PTW/Markus parallel plate chamber at mean incident electron energies of 3.1, 4.4, 8.9, 13.0, 16.3, and 18.8 MeV. The factors are significantly different from unity at low energies.
