Neutron and gamma-ray flux-to-dose rate factors

Creators

Description

Intended for use by shield designers to calculate whole-body dose rates to radiation workers and the general public, this standard presents flux-to-dose rate conversion factors for neutrons (1.5x10-8 to 20 MeV) and gamma rays (0.01 to 15 MeV). Definitions used are based on ANS-9-1976(N1.1-1976)
