Radiation monitors and instruments [PDF]

open access: possibleProceedings of the IEE Part B: Electronic and Communication Engineering, 1962
This is a report on the papers presented at the International Atomic Energy Agency Conference on Nuclear Electronics in the field of radiation monitors and instruments which was held at Belgrade in May, 1961. The report deals particularly with contamination monitors, survey (dose-rate) meters and instruments for monitoring gaseous and liquid effluent ...

Radiation environment monitor

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1996
Abstract The radiation Environment Monitor (REM) is a modular, programmable monitor for the radiation environment on spacecrafts. REM accumulates differential linear energy transfer spectra of two independent silicon detectors with different shieldings.

A Transportable Radiation Monitor

Journal of Scientific Instruments, 1950
An instrument is described which has been designed to detect and measure small amounts of radiation such as may arise from radioactive contamination on benches, clothing or chemical glassware. Although primarily designed as a radiation health monitor, it is capable of measuring the counting rate due to alpha-, beta- or gamma-activity with an accuracy ...

Radiation monitoring of soil

Atomic Energy, 2007
A method of radiation monitoring of the soil used for growing grains, potatoes and green vegetables is proposed. A derivative specific activity of the radionuclides in soil is calculated to perform this monitoring. For specific activity of a radionuclide in soil equal to the derivative level, the yearly consumption of produce grown in this soil results

Biological monitoring of radiation exposure

Advances in Space Research, 1998
Complementary to physical dosimetry, biological dosimetry systems have been developed and applied which weight the different components of environmental radiation according to their biological efficacy. They generally give a record of the accumulated exposure of individuals with high sensitivity and specificity for the toxic agent under consideration ...

A Microwave Radiation Monitor

Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1976
Abstract A microwave radiation monitor designed for rapid measurement of microwave power density in the field is described. The instrument incorporates a broad-band spiral antenna whose design is based on a knowledge of the field pattern of a circular loop antenna.

Radiation monitor with adjustable alarm

Physics in Medicine & Biology, 1969
This device was designed to operate in treatment areas of a large radiotherapy centre. In the event of a mechanical or electrical failure an alarm is given if the radiation beam of the unit remains on after the entrance door to the treatment unit has been opened.

Some New Radiation Monitors [PDF]

open access: possiblePhysics in Medicine and Biology, 1960
Two types of radiation monitor are described, which are of use in reducing the exposure of personnel in contact with radioactive substances. A pocket monitor for nurses working on radium wards is described which gives an audible indication when the dose-rate exceeds 30 mr per hour. A description is also given of a radiation level indicator which sounds

Improvements in Radiation Monitoring Trending

Health Physics, 2017
Abstract One of the main goals for Radiation Safety Professionals is to help maintain radiation worker doses below administrative control levels. In the radiation safety field there is an increasing recognition of the value of dosimetry-related data that can be used to enhance safety programs and regulatory compliance.

Radiation monitoring at Belle

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2003
Abstract High beam currents at the KEK B factory lead to high radiation background (order of 100 krad/y , consisting mostly of spent electrons/positrons) around the interaction point where the silicon vertex detector is located. In order to monitor the background conditions close to the interaction point a radiation monitoring system has been
