Multisphere default spectra--solution spectrum and dosemeter response implications.

Initial calibration of a multisphere spectroscopy system has been completed at Los Alamos National Laboratory using four standard calibration scenarios. Spectrum unfolding was performed using three methods of constructing the default spectrum: simple parameter models, Monte Carlo calculations and physical measurement. Comparisons of the resulting spectra for each solution method are presented. Implications of the spectral solutions upon dosemeter characterisation are addressed.
