A new thermoluminescent dosimeter system for space research

A small, portable, vibration and shock resistant thermoluminescent dosimeter system was developed to measure cosmic radiation dose on board a spacecraft. The system consists of a small battery-operated reader and a special bulb dosimeter. Doses from 10 μGy up to 100 mGy can be measured. The electric...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A small, portable, vibration and shock resistant thermoluminescent dosimeter system was developed to measure cosmic radiation dose on board a spacecraft. The system consists of a small battery-operated reader and a special bulb dosimeter. Doses from 10 μGy up to 100 mGy can be measured. The electrical power consumption of the reader is about 5 W, its volume is about 1 dm 3 and its mass is about 1 kg. Details are given for the construction and technical parameters of the dosimeter and reader.
