Neutron reference radiation fields. Calibration of area and personal dosemeters and determination of their response as a function of neutron energy and angle of incidence | Status: Current

1 Scope This document provides guidance for those who calibrate protection-level dosemeters and doserate meters for area and individual monitoring with reference neutron radiation fields. This includes the determination of the response as a function of neutron energy and angle of incidence. The operational quantities recommended in ICRU Report 51[2] are considered. In addition to the description of procedures, this document includes appropriate definitions and conversion coefficients and provides guidance on the statement of measurement uncertainties.
