Investigation of neutron flux by thermoluminescence dosimeters in the neutron-gamma mixed field
Introduction: Neutrons have many applications in various fields, such as medicine. The important application of neutron in medical science is in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). Because of this, determination of neutron dose and flux is critical for the health maintaining of workers and patients exposed to this beam. The neutron radioisotope sources produce gamma rays in ...

Gamma irradiation device using Cs-137 have been widely utilized to the irradiation of cell, blood, and animal, and the dose measurement and education. The Gammacell 3000 Elan (Nordion International, Kanata, Ontario, Canada) irradiator was installed in 2003 with Cs-137 and dose rate of 3.2 Gy/min. And the BioBeam 8000 (Gamma-Service Medical GmbH, Leipzig, Germany) irradiator was installed in 200...
متن کاملAssessment Of The Effectiveness Of Collimation Of Cs–137 Panoramic Beam On Tld Calibration Using A Constructed Lead Block Collimator And An ICRU Slab Phantom At SSDL In Ghana
The objective of calibrating TLD badges and radiation survey meters demand that accurate dose gets to the TLDs and radiation survey meters. A lead block mould and an ICRU slab phantom had been designed and constructed to collimate the panoramic Cs-137 source at the secondary standards dosimetry laboratory (SSDL) by experts at the National Nuclear Research Institute (NNRI) workshop of the Ghana ...
متن کاملApplication of the Böhm chamber for reference beta dose measurements and the calibration of personal dosimeters
The appropriate evaluation of measured doses in mixed fi elds requires the calibration of dosimeters in relation to different types of radiation and exposure conditions in order to split the signal into individual components corresponding to the specifi c radiation and exposure conditions of the entire period and evaluate the critical level, lower limit of detection and corresponding uncertaint...
متن کاملComparison of the air kerma standards for 137 Cs and 60 Co gamma - ray beams between the IAEA and the NIST
A comparison of the air kerma standards for Cs and Co gamma ray beams was performed between the NIST and the IAEA. Two reference class ionization chambers owned by the IAEA were used as part of this comparison and were calibrated at each facility. The calibration coefficients, NK, were determined for both chambers and in both gamma-ray beams. The measurements were performed at the IAEA and NIST...
