Establishment of a $$^{241}$$Am gamma calibration field based on international standards and its conversion coefficients

Tsuji, Tomoya   ; Yoshitomi, Hiroshi   ; Kowatari, Munehiko*; Tanimura, Yoshihiko   

A $$^{241}$$Am gamma ($$gamma$$)-ray calibration field that meets the requirements for a $$gamma$$-ray reference field as specified in the ISO 4037 standard series was established in the Facility of Radiation Standards of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency. The reference air kerma rates were measured using a reference ionization chamber (IC) calibrated by the N-80 quality X-ray calibration field of the national metrology standard in Japan and with a correction to account for differences in photon energy due to the calibration field. Conversion coefficients for the $$^{241}$$Am $$gamma$$-ray calibration field, including those not listed in the ISO 4037 standard series, were calculated based on the measured $$gamma$$-ray fluence rate spectra.
