Abstract :
A previously developed total-absorption calorimeter was improved by replacing a thermostated air bath by a vacuum chamber in order to reduce the applicable photon energy up to several keV, and to extend the measurable photon intensity up to about 10 W of synchrotron radiation. The calorimeter maintained linearity over the power range from about 10 μW to a few W within 0.1%. Experiments with monoenergetic and white-spectrum photons have proven the designed performance, in which the heat power due to monoenergetic photons was measured within an uncertainty of 3%, and the heat power due to white-spectrum photons was up to about 2 W.
