Abstract
Expressions for errors of separate measurements of gamma and neutron d oses by the two peak TL method were derived. As follows from these exp ressions, the main factors governing the errors are precision of the T L peaks measurement. neutron-gamma ratio of peaks and gamma dose contr ibution to the mixed gamma-neutron field. Calculation of determination errors of neutron dose in a mixed gamma-neutron field by single cryst al (LiF)-Li-7:Mg,Ti detectors shows that the detectors art completely suitable for accident dosimetry.
