Description

CaSO4:Dy detectors have been used in personal dosimetry. The MRA company recently entered into the market of these detectors. Searching to assure a product quality level that would satisfy its customs most expectancies, MRA programmed several tests to qualify and quantify these detectors main characteristics, before their definitive insertion in the market. Preliminary tests furnished a value of 29,5 ± 1,2 nC for homogeneity and a maximum dispersion of 3 % for linearity . (author)
