ASTM-E2450 › Historical Revision Information
Standard Practice for Application of CaF2(Mn) Thermoluminescence Dosimeters in Mixed Neutron-Photon Environments
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This practice describes a procedure for measuring gamma-ray absorbed dose in CaF
1.2 This practice describes a procedure for correcting for the neutron response of a CaF
1.3 More precise experimental techniques may be applied if the uncertainty derived from this practice is larger than the user can accept. These techniques are not discussed here. The references in Section 8 describe some of these techniques.
1.4 This practice does not discuss effects on the TLD reading of neutron interactions with material surrounding the TLD to ensure charged particle equilibrium. These effects depend on the surrounding material and its thickness, and on the neutron spectrum
