Abstract:Purpose: To use experimental methods to measure the overall energy dependence of LiF:Mg,Ti thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) for the Xoft Axxent® miniature x‐ray source (mean energy ∼27 keV) and 137Cs (662 keV) relative to 60Co (1250 keV), to calculate the absorbed‐dose energy dependence with the Monte Carlo (MC) code MCNP5, and to determine the intrinsic energy dependence of the TLDs by dividing the measured overall energy dependence by the absorbed‐dose energy dependence. Method and Materials: TLDs were ir… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
