Measurements with the REM-2 recombination chamber were performed in th
e monoenergetic reference neutron fields at the PTB. The energy depend
ence of the H(10) ambient dose equivalent response was investigated f
or 12 different neutron energies ranging from 75 keV to 19 MeV. A new
simplified data analysis for the determination of H(10) with the ICRP
60 quality factor was tested. The results indicate that the REM-2 rec
ombination chamber is well suited for the direct determination of the
ambient dose equivalent in mixed neutron/photon radiation fields.
