In the framework of the EVIDOS (Evaluation of Individual Dosimetry in Mixed Neutron and Photon Radiation Fields) project, funded by the EC, measurements with PADC personal neutron dosemeters were carried out at several workplace fields of the nuclear industry and at simulated workplace fields. The measured personal neutron dose equivalents of the PADC personal neutron dosemeter are compared with values that were assessed within the EVIDOS project by other partners. The detection limits for different spectra types are given. In cases were the neutron dose was too low to be measured by the PADC personal neutron dosemeter, the response is estimated by convoluting the responses to monoenergetic neutrons with the dose energy distribution measured within EVIDOS. The advantages and limitations of the PADC personal neutron dosemeter are discussed.
在由欧盟委员会资助的EVIDOS(混合中子和光子辐射场中个人剂量测定评估)项目框架内,使用聚碳酸酯(PADC)个人中子剂量计在核工业的多个工作场所及模拟工作场所进行了测量。将PADC个人中子剂量计测得的个人中子剂量当量与EVIDOS项目中其他合作伙伴评估的值进行了比较。给出了不同谱型的探测限。在中子剂量过低而无法由PADC个人中子剂量计测量的情况下,通过将对单能中子的响应与在EVIDOS内测得的剂量能量分布进行卷积来估算响应。讨论了PADC个人中子剂量计的优缺点。
