Zusammenfassung:This work aims to calculate the ambient and personal dose equivalent conversion coefficients. The conversion coefficients have been calculated using MC simulation. Additionally, this paper proposes a new method that depends on an analytical approach. The obtained results in good agreement between MC and an analytical approach were observed. The obtained results were compared to those published in ICRU 57 report. We deduced that the analytical approach is as effective and suitable as the MC simulation to calculate the operational quantity conversion coefficients.
