OBTAINING A SYSTEM OF DOSIMETRY. Progress Report No. 11 for May 28 to July 27, 1958

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4238876

Radiation dosimetry systems were developed for use during the radiosterilization of foods to effect their preservation. Data are presented on the development of ceric sulfate and cobalt glass dosimetry systems for use with a cobalt-60 gamma source. Results are included from preliminary tests on the feasibility of using the measurement of electron range in aluminum as a continuous beam energy monitor. Results of experiments at 1 and 24 Mev indicate that the method is sufficiently promising to warrant further study. (C.H.)
