  • Abstract
    A Philips (Penning)-type ionization gauge is described which, unlike most former gauges of this type described in the literature, is capable of measuring vacuum down to 10-7mm of Hg. Construction and operation details of the gauge are given in addition to its advantages and disadvantages as compared to hot-cathode-type ionization gauges.
