Neutron reference radiation fields - Part 3: Calibration of area and personal dosemeters and determination of their response as a function of neutron energy and angle of incidence

This document provides guidance for those who calibrate protection-level dosemeters and doserate meters for area and individual monitoring with reference neutron radiation fields. This includes the determination of the response as a function of neutron energy and angle of incidence. The operational quantities recommended in ICRU Report 51 are considered. In addition to the description of procedures, this document includes appropriate definitions and conversion coefficients and provides guidance on the statement of measurement uncertainties.

REFERENCE NEUTRON RADIATIONS. PART 3 : CALIBRATION OF AREA AND PERSONAL DOSEMETERS AND DETERMINATION OF RESPONSE AS A FUNCTION OF ENERGY AND ANGLE OF INCIDENCE.

La présente partie de l'ISO 8529 donne des lignes directrices à ceux qui étalonnent, avec des rayonnements neutroniques de référence, des dosimètres et débitmètres pour les surveillances de zone et individuelle dans le cadre de la radioprotection. Ceci inclut la détermination de la réponse en fonction de l'énergie des neutrons et de leur angle d'incidence. Les grandeurs opérationnelles, recommandées dans l'ICRU Report 43 (référence [4] dans la bibliographie) et l'ICRU Report 47 (référence [5] dans la Bibliographie), sont prises en compte. En plus de la description des procédures, la présente partie de l'ISO 8529 contient des définitions et les coefficients de conversion appropriés et donne des indications sur l'analyse des incertitudes de mesurage et l'élaboration des fiches et des certificats d'étalonnage.NOTE Les caractéristiques des rayonnements de référence, leurs méthodes de production et leurs applications sont décrites dans l'ISO 8529-1 et l'ISO 8529-2.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
