Conversion coefficients from fluence and air kerma to dose equivalent quantities
Following the publication of the International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements Report 39 (ICRU, 1985), the British Committee on Radiation Units and Measurements issued a memorandum (BCRU, 1986) recommending the adoption of the quantities ambient dose equivalent H*(d) and directional dose equivalent H'(d) for area monitoring in the UK ...
