Description

Thermoluminescent dosemeter (TLD) based neutron individual monitoring needs a more rigorous thermoluminescent (TL) emission spectra analysis than photon monitoring. For analysis automation and optimization, a computational program has been developed in Visual Basic. It reads the input data from a Ascii file generated by the emission spectra exportation of the evaluated TLD's. The system can be divided in 4 parts: TL spectra filtration and correction (manual or automatic), charge integration of the corrected reading of each TLD, neutron individual dose calculation for each monitored worker and interface with the user. As main output, the system generates one text file which feeds the IRD Individual Monitoring Data Bank. (author). 5 refs., 1 fig
