Measurements of Small Exposures of Gamma Radiation with CaSO{sub 4}:Mn Radiothermoluminescence

Abstract

A system for measurements of small exposures of gamma radiation using CaSO{sub 4}:Mn thermoluminescence has been developed. The construction and performance of a read-out apparatus is described as well as the construction and characteristics of a simple dosimeter. The reproducibility of the method at various exposures is estimated. 20 {mu}R of 1 MeV gamma radiation can be measured with a reproducibility within {+-} 50 % (standard deviation)
