Thin-foil x-ray dosimeters with millisecond time response: Applications and fielding techniques

Description

This report consists of a collection of vugraphs accompanied by brief descriptions. The purpose of this report is to describe in some detail the construction and fielding techniques for the thin foil thermal dosimeters that we have developed for pulsed x-ray environments. We discuss first the construction of the gauge and its temperature sensor. Next, several laboratory calibration measurements are described. Third, we consider the thermoelectric circuit used in the field together with the signal calibrations. Data reduction is the subject of the fourth section, and we conclude with a list of future developments. 17 figs
