Synthetic-diamond detectors for charged-particle beams dosimetry
Hadron cancer-therapy with high-energetic heavy-ions (HI) as available at the SIS facility at GSI Darmstadt [1] as well as the research with beams stopped in biological material as realized at the UNILAC at GSI in general require the precise knowledge of beam conditions and its composition as well as the applied dose within less than 1% in most cases. At these sites beam preparation, its applic...
متن کاملThermoluminescent 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...
متن کاملNeutron 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...
متن کاملNeutron Dosimetry and Neutron Spectrum Unfolding Using Neural Networks
An artificial neural network has been designed to obtain the neutron spectra from the Bonner spheres spectrometer's count rates. The neural network was trained using 101 neutron spectra taken from IAEA's compilations. These include calibration, reference and operational neutron spectra whose energy distribution is different from UTA4 response matrix, therefore the spectra were converted from le...
متن کاملNeutron Detectors
Mechanisms for detecting neutrons in matter are based on indirect methods. Neutrons, as their name suggests, are neutral. Also, they do not interact directly with the electrons in matter, as gamma ray$ do. The process of neutron detection begins when neutrons, interacting with various nuclei, initiate the release of one or more charged particles. The electrical signrdsproduced by the charged pa...
