Abstract
A new U-doped glass monitor is being developed for the determination o f the thermal neutron fluence in the absolute calibration of Fission-T rack dating. The homogeneity of the U-distribution between and within glass discs was investigated, the thermal stability of the tracks was checked and both the U and Th content and the concentration of neutron absorbing elements were determined.
