Abstract
A dosemeter badge with two TL detectors has been designed for the simu ltaneous measurement of H(p)(0.07) and H(p)(10). The performance of th e dosimetry system has been investigated for various X and beta ray fi elds with radiation incidence between 0-degree and 75-degrees. For arb itrary mixtures of the test radiation fields the response to H(p)(0.07 ) varies between 0.57 and 1.62. The response of the dosemeter to H(p)( 10) ranges between 0.39 and 1.60 for X rays. The thin TL detector has some stability problems which can probably be reduced by optimising th e annealing procedure.
