Dosimetric and Radiometric Instruments, Test Methods.

Abstract

The document presents specifications for testing dosimetric and radiometric instruments. Methods for calibrating the instruments against standard instruments or standard sources of ionizing radiation are presented. Determination of supplementary errors due to power supply voltage changes, high temperature, low temperature, humidity, pressure, radiation interference, magnetic field changes and changes in background radiation are presented or other specifications are referred to.
