Recently, the ICRU released Report 95, where new operational quantities for external radiation exposure are defined. The new quantities are defined in close relation to the protection quantities. This change affects the practice use of dosemeters. That is why the instruments must be adapted to the measurement of new quantities before their implementing as legally binding. The discrepancies depend on radiation spectra-particle type, energy of particles and direction of incidence. To analyse the performance of currently used instruments, irradiations in photon and neutron fields of various energies were performed for personal and area dosemeters. In this work, the response of photon and neutron personal dosemeters in conditions of rotational geometry is presented. The difference between the responses with respect to the new or old operational quantity was not large, which corresponded to the similar reference values for this irradiation geometry. The mutual ratio depended on the specific radiation quality and geometry. The behaviour of different types of dosemeters varied too.
最近,ICRU 发布了报告 95,其中定义了新的外部辐射暴露操作量。这些新的数量与防护数量密切相关。这种变化影响了剂量计的实际使用。因此,在将其作为具有法律约束力的实施之前,仪器必须适应新数量的测量。差异取决于辐射光谱-粒子类型、粒子能量和入射方向。为了分析当前使用仪器的性能,在各种能量的光子和中子场中对个人和区域剂量计进行了辐照。在这项工作中,介绍了在旋转几何条件下光子和中子个人剂量计的响应。相对于新的或旧的操作量,响应之间的差异不大,这与这种辐照几何形状的相似参考值相对应。相互比取决于特定的辐射质量和几何形状。不同类型的剂量计的行为也有所不同。
