Accidental-radiation dosimetry by using the lyoluminescence of ordinary sugar
Description
This investigation had the purpose to develop a simple and reliable method permitting, in the event of a nuclear catastrophe, to establish within short, for a large number of persons in representative places, doses of γ-radiation that might serve as decision aids for therapeutic measures to be taken. A suitable method seems to be by radiation-induced luminescence and subsequent solution (Lyoluminescence, LL) of sugar, a product available in any office, canteen, or household. Such lyoluminescence dosimetry was investigated. (orig./DG)
Abstract (German)
Das Ziel der vorliegenden Untersuchungen war es, eine einfache und zuverlaessige Methode zu entwickeln, mit der im Falle einer nuklearen Katastrophe fuer eine grosse Zahl Betroffener an repraesentativen Orten in kurzer Zeit γ-Strahlendosen ermittelt werden koennen, die Entscheidungshilfen fuer die Einleitung therapeutischer Massnahmen darstellen koennen. Hierfuer scheint die strahlungsinduzierte Lumineszenz bei nachfolgender Loesung (Lyolumineszenz, LL) von Zucker geeignet zu sein, der in Bueros, Kantinen, Haushalten etc. vorhanden ist. Diese Lyolumineszenzdosimetrie wurde untersucht. (orig./DG)Additional details
