“…For proper calibration and comparison, it is important that the response of the cavity ion chamber in a measurement laboratory remains the same as that in other measurements or calibration laboratories. It has normally been assumed in comparison programs [4,5] that the ion chamber response would be the same if the same reference environmental conditions are used throughout (i.e. the correction for air density and humidity is applied).…”

The temperature dependence of the cavity ion chamber response was measured at room temperature in the range 17 • C to 27 • C. By analysing the variation of the ionization current with temperature produced in the cavity chamber, the temperature coefficient of the cavity chamber response was evaluated. The values were 4.1 × 10 −4 • C −1 , 4.3 × 10 −4 • C −1 and 2 × 10 −5 • C −1 for chambers made of C552 air equivalent plastic, polyoxymethylene and graphite, respectively.

A comparison of personal dose equivalent Hp(10) for 137Cs radiation was conducted between the primary standards laboratories of Japan and Australia. A set of 120 commercially available passive BeO OSL dosemeters were used (Dosimetrics GmbH, Munich). The aim was to investigate the precision which could be obtained with this technique, and to confirm the personal dose equivalent delivery methods in each standards laboratory. A dose of 5 mSv was delivered to 40 dosemeters in each country, and 40 dosemeters were used as controls. The result of the comparison was a ratio of Hp(10) in Japan to Australia of 1.006 with a combined standard uncertainty of 3.2%. The statistical uncertainty was 0.32% indicating that passive dosemeters can be used for comparisons of high precision.
