Description

The Dosimetry Laboratory of the Radiation Protection and Safety Centre in Algiers has developed a fast neutron personal dosemeter using a PADC detector. This dosemeter has been type tested in terms of the ICRU calibration quantity, directional dose equivalent at 10 mm, H'(10). This paper gives the results of type test measurements. In addition, some properties of five different PADC materials were investigated in this study. (author)
