The fast neutron energy dependence of response of the HPA PADC neutron personal dosemeter has been measured from 144 keV to 19 MeV using monoenergetic neutron fields. Below 144 keV the relative energy and angle dependence of response have been determined using MCNP-4C2. New data from the SIGMA field at Cadarache, France, have been used to determine the appropriate scaling factor for the calculated response to thermal and intermediate energy neutrons. These newly determined response characteristics of the dosemeter are discussed with respect to its performance in the EVIDOS workplace field irradiations.
利用单能中子场，在144keV至19MeV范围内测量了HPA聚碳酸酯核径迹探测器中子个人剂量计响应的快中子能量依赖性。在144keV以下，使用MCNP - 4C2确定了响应的相对能量和角度依赖性。法国卡达拉舍SIGMA场的新数据已用于确定热中子和中能中子计算响应的适当比例因子。结合剂量计在EVIDOS工作场所场辐照中的性能，讨论了这些新确定的剂量计响应特性。
