DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF A SIMPLE SOLID INTEGRATING ULTRAVIOLET DOSIMETER.

Abstract

The history, chemical and physical characteristics and some applications of a simple halogenated hydrocarbon-indicator dye-paraffin dosimeter for the measurement of ultraviolet radiation are described. With such a system, The topographic distribution of ultraviolet radiation over a model of the human head has been investigated. Striking effects of various types of sun shades and reflector surfaces have been noted. The system is useful for quantitative measurements of energy output of various ultraviolet sources, The investigation of sunscreens and for topographic studies of natural distribution of ultraviolet radiation.
