Calibration and standardization of instruments for background radiation monitoring

  • 1. Risoe National Lab., Roskilde (Denmark)

Description

Two calibration methods for controlling environmental gamma exposure rate meters have been outlined and properly tested, and results from routine calibration experiments with high-pressure ionization chambers demonstrate that a reproducibility for both methods can be obtained within 1% (1 SD) when regularly performed over a prolonged period.
