Since air transport became more accessible, more and more people have been exposed to ionising radiation of cosmic origin. Measuring the neutron dose equivalent is a good approximation of total ambient dose equivalent, as neutrons carry about 50 % of the

Evaluation of a microdosimeter designed for measurement of neutron lineal energy distribution and determination of its quality factor [PDF]
Energy response of common neutron dosimeters has a significant deviation. Our goal is to construct an ambient neutron dosimeter as an array of microdosimeters whose response has less dependency on neutron energy.
