Dosimetry in Mixed Neutron-Gamma Fields
The gamma field accompanying neutrons may, in certain circumstances, play an important role in the analysis of neutron dosimetry and even in the interpretation of radiation induced steel embrittlement. At the figh Flux Isotope Reactor pressure vessel the gamma-induced reactions dominate the responses of ' W p and 238u dosimeters, and9Be helium accumulation fluence monitors. The gamma induced at...
متن کاملEvaluation of individual dosimetry in mixed neutron and photon radiation fields (EVIDOS). Part I: Scope and methods of the project.
Supported by the European Commission, the EVIDOS project started in November 2001 with the broad goal of evaluating state of the art dosimetry techniques in representative workplaces of the nuclear industry. Seven European institutes joined efforts with end users at nuclear power plants, at fuel processing and reprocessing plants, and at transport and storage facilities. A comprehensive program...
متن کاملDesign and calibration of a passive detector for separating neutron, proton and alpha particles in mixed radiation fields
In this study, calibration process was carried out for deigned new CR-39 nuclear track detector for protons, neutrons and alpha particles separately under the same etching condition. In order to aim this purpose, americium-beryllium standard source (241Am-Be) and Plexiglas phantom for neutron irradiation, brass collimators and americium standard source (241Am) for alpha irradiation and the acce...
متن کاملdesigning and dosimetry of a shield for photon fields of radiation therapy in oral cavity cancer
the cancer of oral cavity is related to lesions of mucous membrane of tongue and gum that can be treated with radiation therapy. a lateral photon field can be used to treat this kind of tumor, which has a side‑effect on normal tissue in the opposite side of the oral cavity. in this study the dosimetric effect of the various shields in oral cavity is evaluated. in this study, a special phantom s...
متن کاملRadiation Protection Dosimetry in Pulsed Radiation Fields
The application of pulsed radiation fields for research, security screening and medical examinations has increased remarkably in the last years. Testing of active personal and area dosemeters for the operation in pulsed radiation fields is a necessity to judge the suitability of the dosemeter. Up to now, radiation protection dosemeters have only been tested in continuous fields, although they a...
