Description

This paper presents calculation results based on Monte-Carlo methods to select the appropriate a neutron moderated material in order to design 4 relevant configurations of a neutron dose calibration system with a 252Cf source. These calibration configurations provide 6 neutron spectra with the various average energies: 1.04 MeV, 1.38 MeV, 1.69 MeV, 2.05 MeV, 2.46 MeV and 2.93 MeV satisfied for the calibration of the neutron survey meters and personal dosimeters.
