Use of a Spherical Albedo System for Correcting the Readings of Albedo Dosimeters in JINR Phasotron Neutron Radiation Fields

摘要

Results of calibrating a spherical albedo system in the radiation fields of a Pu—Be radionuclide neutron source are presented. It is shown that it can be used for correcting the readings of the DVGN-01 albedo dosimeter. The results of measurements with the system in JINR phasotron neutron fields for the pur-pose of correcting the DVGN-01 readings in these fields are given. The values of the correction factors for DVGN-01 albedo dosimeters when used in personnel neutron dosimetry (PD) on the JINR phasotron are determined.
