NEUTRON DOSIMETRY


At Concordia, the neutron dose rate is monitored by the Thermo WENDI-2 rem counter, sensitive to neutrons of energy up to 5 GeV.

WENDI-2 provides the dose in terms of Ambient dose equivalent, denoted as H*(10), measured in Sievert (Sv).

NEUTRON DOSIMETRY


The ATOMTEX BDKN-03 rem counter measures the dose due to neutrons of energy up to 14 MeV.

GAMMA-RAY DOSIMETRY


The gamma-ray dose rate is measured by the Automess 6150AD-b dosimeter, sensitive to X and gamma rays in the energy range 23 KeV - 7 MeV.

LINEAR ENERGY TRANSFER (LET) SPECTROMETRY
The LABDOS spectrometer measures the energy deposited in a Silicon diode by ionizing radiation.


The figure below shows the distribution of the deposited energy up to about 10 MeV.
The absorbed dose in Silicon (i.e. the absorbed energy per mass unit, measured in Gray) is calculated by integrating the deposited energy spectrum.
