Comparative Study of Depth Dose Distribution of Fast Neutrons Using Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors

Fast Neutron Dose Distribution Measurements inside Water Phantom using LR115 Track Detectors

“…From Figure 3, it is clear that ( ) B x increases with depth from 0.8cm to ~ 5cm reaching a maximum value of ~ 1.3 at 5cm and then becomes more or less constant. This mentioned value of ( ) B x goes with the results in the literature, [12] . In Figure 4, the variation of absorbed dose rate, as calculated from fluence-Kerma conversion factor in water [18] with depth in phantom is shown.…”

“…Measurements of the absorbed dose in a tissue equivalent phantom have been carried out by means of ionization chambers [6,7] , silicon diodes [8,9] , thermoluminescence dosimeters [10] , track etching detectors [11][12][13] , and by activation detectors [14] .…”
