Abstract
Alanine dosimeters were irradiated at 3 x 10(10) Gy/s using a pulsed e lectron beam. The response measured by ESR showed good agreement with dosimetry by radiochromic film dosimeters, which are reliable at that absorbed dose rate. The results indicate that alanine dosimeters may b e used at very high dose rate, within their nominal-usable dose range up to 100 kGy. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
