The European Directive 96/29/EURATOM and adapted national regulations on radiation protection are claiming new limits of radiation exposure and the introduction of new measuring quantities. Dosimeters for area monitoring of penetrating X-ray and gamma radiation have to measure the ICRU operational quantity ambient dose equivalent, H*(10). In this paper, the development stages of a passive H*(10...

a lithium borate thermoluminescence dosimeter with 0.3 wt% of manganese impurityconcentration was prepared for high dose levels in the range of 1-30 kgy for gamma irradiation applications.the tld reader was used for read out purposes from ambient temperature to about 400°c with a heating rate of 6°c/sec. the pre- and post- irradiation anneal temperature was 300°c for 1.5 and 1 hours respectivel...

Abstract The present article deals with potassium magnesium borate glass activated copper that was prepared by a melting quenching technique to study the feasibility of this as radiation dosimeter. glasses were characterized through X-ray diffraction and FTIR spectroscopy some optical physical parameters have been interpreted. thermoluminescence properties samples studied, results revealed dope...

This work intend to identify and follow up quality control parameters to improve thermoluminescence dosemeter (TLD) system used for personal dosimetry in ionizing radiation metrology laboratory (IRML). Characterization of personal dosimetry system has presented in terms of the stability of reader calibration factors, linearity of response for Cs as reference radiation source, energy and angular...
