High dose dosimetry in cobalt-60 gamma rays using glass detectors

Abstract

Commercial and speeral glass samples are used for high dose dosimetry in gamma rays of a 110 kG cobalt-60 irradiation facility. The correlation between absorbed doses and optical desities of the sample was studied. Calibration curves were obtained by using Fricke and Perspex dosimeters. The optical density fading of the samples at room temperature was studied over 60 days. The results show that glass samples can be utilized as routine dosimeters with the main advantage of very low cost, simple measurement technique and wide dose range. (author). 8 figs, 4 refs, 2 tabs.
