Conference ·
OSTI ID:7059111
This paper presents data taken during testing of health physics instrumentation that provides information for the evaluation of the applicability and practicality of the proposed ANSI standard (N42.17) and the determination of the degree of conformance of currently available instruments to the proposed standard. The instruments tested included ionization chambers, Geiger Mueller detectors, alpha survey meters, neutron dose equivalent survey meters, and air monitors. (ACR)
