EPR dose reconstruction in teeth: fundamentals, applications, problems and perspectives

摘要

Fundamentals, applications problems and perspectives of LPR dose reconstruction in tooth enamel are presented. EPR dose reconstruction results are reviewed for the Chernobyl accident, Russian nuclear workers and the population residing in the vicinity of the Mayak nuclear plant, and two Soviet nuclear test sites: Semipalatinsk (Kazakhstan) and Totskoye (Russia). Unanswered questions in EPR dose reconstruction are formulated. Possible new directions and perspectives of EPR retrospective dosimetry are also considered.
