Luminescence dosimetry using building materials and personal objects

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2006
There is a growing public awareness of the risk of accidental radiation exposure due to ageing nuclear power installations, illegal dumping of nuclear waste and terrorist activities, and of the consequential health risks to populations in addition to social and economic disturbance extending beyond national boundaries.

Thermoluminescence Personal and Medical Dosimetry

2006
Thermoluminescence dosimetry (TLD) is applied worldwide for personal and medical dosimetry. In this paper a brief summary of theoretical background and measurement procedure of TLD is presented. The main characteristics of various TLD systems (batch homogeneity, sensitivity, reproducibility, linearity, light sensitivity, fading and energy dependence ...

Dose Algorithms for Personal Thermoluminescence Dosimetry

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 1993
Abstract Dose algorithms are used in thermoluminescence personnel dosimetry for the interpretation of the dosemeter response in terms of a risk related quantity, i.e. dose equivalent. Significant advances have been made in recent years to improve calibration methodology and dose calculation algorithms. This process was accelerated in the

EURADOS Trial Performance Test for Neutron Personal Dosimetry

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2001
This paper reports on the results of a neutron trial performance test sponsored by the European Commission and organised by EURADOS. As anticipated, neutron dosimetry results were very dependent on the dosemeter type and the dose calculation algorithm.

Advanced Networked Modular Personal Dosimetry System

2014
A personal radiation level monitoring system has been developed based on an autonomous, advanced personal dosimeter. This dosimeter uses a scintillator-SiPM combination for the radiation detection, it integrates spectroscopy and isotope identification capabilities. In order to choose the optimum scintillator crystal and photosensor for a portable gamma

CEC Intercomparison Programme for personal dosimetry

Journal of the Society for Radiological Protection, 1983
Users of unsealed sources are obliged to keep records of isotope acquisitions, stocks and disposals. The time spent on paper work can be quite high and the use of a computer program cuts this considerably. The following describes a system developed on a DEC-2060 for overall record keeping for a building of some 30 Departments each of which enters its ...

Personal neutron dosimetry using track detectors

International Journal of Radiation Applications and Instrumentation. Part D. Nuclear Tracks and Radiation Measurements, 1988
Abstract In this paper, the present status of personal neutron dosimetry using plastic detectors has been briefly reviewed. In different laboratories efforts have been aimed particularly at showing the advantages and drawbacks met with in using CR-39 polycarbonate track detector for personal neutron dosimetry. The paper also summarizes the experience
