The dosimetry of different minerals is carried out to investigate the dose received by the population in case of a nuclear accident. Retrospective dosimetry is a field where there is a continuous search to find new materials. Beach sand minerals, namely quartz and zircon, were exposed to beta and gamma radiation and studied separately. A comparison of the thermoluminescence (TL) output of different peaks of quartz for beta and gamma was studied. Comparison of quartz peaks with the TL output of zircon peaks was carried out. TL output for a constant dose of gamma is always higher compared to the TL output received due to beta.
对不同矿物质的剂量学进行研究，以调查核事故发生时人群所接受的剂量。事后剂量学是一个不断寻找新材料的领域。对暴露于β和γ辐射的海滩砂矿物质（石英和锆石）进行了单独研究。比较了不同β和γ峰的石英热释光（TL）输出。还对石英峰的 TL 输出与锆石峰的 TL 输出进行了比较。与β辐射相比，γ辐射的恒定剂量的 TL 输出总是更高。
