SIMULATION AND CALIBRATION OF AN ACTIVE NEUTRON DOSEMETER

摘要

Here the latest development stages of the HMGU active neutron dosemeter are presented. This work includes the comparison of the dosemeter's response function, calculated with Geant4, and the measurements in monoenergetic neutron fields at the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt in Braunschweig, Germany. These results were used to match the response function and the count-to-dose conversion factors of the dosemeter to the H_p(10) personal dose equivalent.
