NBS (National Bureau of Standards) standard reference neutron fields for personnel dosimetry calibration. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5817224
;

The National Bureau of Standards (NBS) has established and characterized several neutron fields for dosimeter calibration. Two of these fields are continuous neutron spectra: the spontaneous fission neutron distribution from /sup 252/Cf, and a thermal Maxwellian beam. The other three neutron fields are monoenergetic reactor beams with energies of 2, 24, and 144 keV.
