Description
The calibration facilities for radiation detectors at Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) are introduced. For neutron detectors, two neutron sources, Am241-Be and Pu-Be, are provided for the calibration. The dimensions of the calibration room are about 5m x 6.5m, and its height is 3.4m. The calibration for fast neutrons and thermal neutrons can be done. A moderated neutron field is also provided. A method to determine neutron dose is described. For X-ray and gamma-ray detectors, and X-ray generator, Ra226, Cs137 and two Co60 sources are provided. The project to construct a standard radiation field facility is in progress. As a plan of the first step, a building with floor area of 1903.9m2 is designed. (Kato, T.)
