Neutron reference radiation fields — Part 3: Calibration of area and personal dosemeters and determination of their response as a function of neutron energy and angle of incidence ISO 8529-3:2023

Publication date:   Jun 30, 2023

Scope

This document provides guidance for those who calibrate protection-level dosemeters and doserate meters for area and individual monitoring with reference neutron radiation fields. This includes the determination of the response as a function of neutron energy and angle of incidence. The operational quantities recommended in ICRU Report 51 are considered. In addition to the description of procedures, this document includes appropriate definitions and conversion coefficients and provides guidance on the statement of measurement uncertainties.
