The DINA personal dosimeter included in the GNEIS beta-, gamma-, and neutron-radiation safety kit uses fission-fragment track detectors and a target containing /sup 237/Np with a /sup 10/B filter. The purpose of this paper is to derive quantitative data on the characteristics of the DINA dosimeter in the measurement of the equivalent kerma during chronic personnel exposure in neutron fields, and to evaluate whether in that situation the dosimeter can be effectively used when only the track dose value varies.
