被引用回数:0In radiological emergency, timely and reliable radiological information such as dose rate or radioactive concentrations due to artificial radionuclides is indispensable to protect general public and the first responder of the situation. The authors have investigated the method for effectively identifying and determining the radioactivity concentration using a scintillation spectrometer. In this study, the authors demonstrate how influence of terrestrial background (BG) component on measured pulse height spectrum can be minimized to obtain the peaks from gamma rays emitted by artificial radioactivity. In some cases of radiological emergency monitoring, subtraction of BG components was probe to be difficult, because the prior measurement of BG component at the place to be monitored is compulsory. By removing the BG component appropriately from measured pulse height spectrum without any prior BG measurement, the effective minimum detection limit of the spectrometer would be declined.

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:58.8(Environmental Sciences)A low dose rate Cs gamma ray calibration field that fully satisfies the requirement of the ISO 4037 series was established in the Facility of Radiation Standards in Japan Atomic Energy Agency. Two different methods were employed to determine the reference air kerma rate, namely a conventional ionization chamber and a G(E) function method used a newly developed scintillation spectrometer. To fulfill the requirement of the ISO 4037 and suppress scattering of Cs gamma ray within the room as far as possible, a suitable lead collimator was introduced to limit the irradiation area at test points and placed at the middle height in an irradiation room with a grating floor. From measured results evaluated reference air kerma rates between 1.0 m and 3.0 m from the center of the source, gamma ray scattering from the room structures was found to be negligible. The resulting Cs gamma ray calibration field could provide ambient dose equivalent rates of 0.7-7.2 Sv h
for use with environmental radiation monitoring devices.
