Description

The thermal neutron responses in the range 1010 to 2*1012 n cm-2 and the gamma -ray sensitivities of common thermoluminescent materials (CaSO4:Dy, CaSO4:Tm, CaF2:Dy, CaF2:Mn, Li2B4O7:Mn, LiF (TLD-700, TLD-100, TLD-600), Mg2SiO4:Tb and BeO) have been studied in detail and the results compared with those published elsewhere.
