Calorimetric dosimetry in neutron and charged particle beams

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6329945
; ;
A portable tissue-equivalent (TE) calorimetric, constructed of A-150 plastic, has been employed for the measurement of absorbed dose in several neutron radiotherapy fields. Comparisons of spherical, cylindrical, and thimble shaped TE ionization chambers have been carried out using either air, or a flow of TE gas in the chamber. (GHT)
