A description is given of a method for the calibration of dosimeters which is based on the total absorption of a beam of ionizing particles of known energy in the substance of the detector and subsequent calculation of the mean absorbed dosage. In the case of luminescent detectors and low-penetration radiation, it is recommended that the measurement of the mean absorbed dosage be carried out by the difference method, i.e., from the change in the reading of the dosimeter after a layer of the substance under study has been placed between the dosimeter and the plane emitter. A dosimeter for beta radiation is described which has a plastic luminophor designed for energy values of 0.1 to 2 Mev at mean absorbed dosages not above 10/sup 4/ rad/hr.
