Neutron dosimetry

R É S U M É En dosimétrie des neutrons, les situations pratiques rencontrées couvrent un large domaine d'énergie s'étendant sur plus de 10 décades. En outre, les grandeurs dosimétriques utilisées en radioprotection ne sont pas directement accessibles à la mesure. Ce dernier point est principalement dû à la variation de la "qualité" du rayonnement neutronique, exprimé au moyen des facteurs de po...

Bnl-80232-2008-cp Characterization of Dosimetry of the Bmrr Horizontal Thimble Tubes and Broad Beam Facility

The Brookhaven Medical Research Reactor was a 5 mega-watt, light-water cooled and heavygraphite moderated research facility. It has two shutter-equipped treatment rooms, three horizontally extended thimble tubes, and an ex-core broad beam facility. The three experimental thimbles, or activation ports, external to the reactor tank were designed for several uses, including the investigations on d...

Thermoluminescent Detectors for Neutron Dosimetry at High Altitudes

At high altitudes in the Earth’s atmosphere cosmic-ray induced neutrons become the dominant contributors to the biologically relevant dose equivalent. Depending on the geomagnetic latitude and the solar activity cycle, neutron dose onboard aircraft amounts to about 50 to 70 % of the overall dose equivalent. Neutron detection in complexly mixed radiation environments by means of active, i.e. pow...
