Energy dependence of metallic-encapsulated thermoluminescent dosimeters. Annual report
The gamma-ray energy responses of encapsulated /sup 7/LiF and CaF/sub 2/:Mn thermoluminescent dosimeters were measured and compred to calculated values. This study was performed in order to improve the accuracy of gamma-ray heating measurements made in polyenergetic gamma-ray fields such as Argonne National Laboratory's Zero Power Reactors. Equations used in the development of the TERC/III computer code and code input parameters are specified. A section on TLD precision is also included. Comparisons between calculations and experiments are reported for a gamma-ray energy range of 0.122 to 1.33 MeV and encasement media with a range of atomic numbers from 13 to 82.
