Dose Distributions at and Near the Interface of Different Materials Exposed to Cobalt-60 Gamma Radiation.
Abstract
Determination of the radiation dose delivered to electronic devices and components exposed to radiation environments is basic to the assessment of system's vulnerability and hardening. In the region of the interface between materials of different composition, the radiation dose can be more than ten times that obtained by applying standard experimental or computational dosimetry methods. The present report describes experimental measurements of absorbed dose as a function of distance from the interface for a number of material combinations exposed to cobalt-60 gamma radiation.
