Descrição
Resumo:Under the umbrella of the European Radiation Dosimetry Group (EURADOS), different working groups have responded to the requests of monitoring services in Europe for independent tests of dosimetry systems for harmonization and quality assurance. After having performed regular intercomparisons of personal dosemeters, EURADOS Working Group 3, “Environmental Dosimetry”, performed the first EURADOS intercomparison for passive ambient dose equivalent, abbreviated H*(10), area dosemeters used for environmental monitoring in 2014 (IC2014env). Such dosimetry systems are generally used to monitor nuclear installations, besides other applications. The results of this intercomparison with a total of more than 500 dosemeters help to better understand influence parameters and the possible accuracy of typical dosimetric measurements using passive dosemeters.
