A THEORY FOR HETEROGENEOUS ION CHAMBERS AND NEUTRONS RESPONSE OF VICTOREEN DOSIMETERS
A method is presented for the approximate estimation of the response to ionizing radiation of spherical-cavity ion chambers that are not of the homogeneous type. The calculations are applied in particular to the response of standard Victoreen x-ray dosimeters to fast neutrons, taking into account the attenuation of the reading by the air filling and by the graphite coating that lines the inner surface.
