[A] dosimeter ... designed to measure the flux of thermal neutrons which leave the body when a person is exposed to fast energy neutrons. 1, record 3, English, - albedo%20neutron%20dosimeter
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The fast neutrons are scattered and moderated in the body, and many have lost most of their initial energy and emerge as thermal neutrons. The albedo neutron dosimeter is designed to detect this flux of thermal neutrons by using a thermal neutron detector. This could be any type of thermal neutron detector but in pratical applications lithium fluoride(LiF) thermoluminescence dosimeters(TLDs) are most frequently used. 1, record 3, English, - albedo%20neutron%20dosimeter
