Journal Article · · Kernenergie, v. 16, no. 11, pp. 339-346
OSTI ID:4328990
The neutron emergency dosimeter system developed on behalf of the National Center for Radiation Protection of the GDR is described. It consists of an emergency badge (Au, Cu, In, and S foils, solid-state track detector, LiF thermoluminescence dosimeter probe), a button hole dosimeter (Cu and S foils), and a position dosimeter (Au foil and LiF TLD probe in a moderator sphere, emergency badge, and Zn, Fe, and Al threshold indicators). The reading method of the activation foils is described for the case that an accident happened in a nuclear installation. The possible errors of absorbed dose measurement are discussed. (auth)
