The main research described in this paper includes three sections. First, on the response of stainless steel ball-shaped ionisation chamber by experimental methods. Secondly, calculation with general Monte Carlo EGS4 code order to compare equivalent electron source theory Finally, theory. results show that calculated coincide very well those experiments when atomic number wall is close one gases (such as Ar and Kr), a certain extent not He Xe).
