Description

The method of scintillation spectra unfolding was used to obtain a true photon spectrum in the environment. The corrected spectrum was subsequently used for the energy distribution of exposure rates as well as for energy distribution of kerma rates in air calculated on the basis of the definitions of the quantities. This result is compared with the results of two other methods of environmental exposure rate evaluation. (author). 1 fig., 6 refs
