Pulse-shape discrimination between electron and nuclear recoils in a NaI(Tl) crystal [PDF]
We report on the response of a high light-output NaI(Tl) crystal to nuclear recoils induced by neutrons from an Am-Be source and compare the results with the response to electron recoils produced by Compton scattered 662 keV $\gamma$-rays from a $^{137 ...

A STUDY ON GAMMA RADIATION RESPONSE OF CERIC SULFATE DOSIMETER [PDF]
Nuclear radiation is highly beneficial in controlled way. On the other hand, it has shown severe damaging effects on human health when our body is directly exposed to it. To prevent its exposure or overdose several dosimeters have been synthesized with
