The free air ionization chamber for low energies of the Calibration Laboratory (LCI) of IPEN showed in a characterization test a problem in the set responsible for the variation of its sensitive volume. After a modification in the support of the micrometers used for the movement of the internal cylinder and the establishment of a new alignment system protocol, the tests were redone. The objective of this work was to present the results obtained in the new condition.1-5openAccesscalibrationionizationstandardsionization chambersairalignmentcylinderskermamodificationsvariationsx radiationCharacterization of a free air ionization chamber for low energy X-raysArtigo de periódico73310.1088/1742-6596/733/1/012090https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7362-2455
