EPR spectra of alanine pellets and lithium formate powder in nuclear power plants

  • 1. Radiation Health Research Institute, Seoul (Korea, Republic of)

Description

Alanine pellets and lithium formate monhydrate powder were installed at the containment buildings of nuclear power plants for environmental radiation monitoring. For some alanine dosimeters, the 'x/y ratio' of signal was apparently different from that of only gamma exposed dosimeters. Lithium formate powder also showed a difference in appearance and signal saturation. From an analysis of the spectra, both dosimeters appeared to have been exposed to mixed gamma-neutron radiation.
