Abstract
A modified design of dosemeter has been developed to measure the perso nal dose equivalent at 10 mm, H(p)(10) for photon radiations. By means of a combination filter comprised of a plastic dome and an aluminium disc, an improved H(p)(10) response relative to current designs of two element dosemeter is obtained for photon energies down to 20 keV and for angles of incidence up to 60-degrees.
