  • Individual measuring device for the neutron dose equivalent
    Patent number: 5083028
    Abstract: Individual measuring device for the neutron dose equivalent comprising a detector (10) constituted by two identical diodes (13, 14). The first diode (13) is covered by a charged particle neutron converter (16). Converter (16) and the second diode (14) are covered by a protective screen (12). A differential measurement is performed between the signals from the two diodes (13, 14), which makes it possible to eliminate spurious noise. The result of the subtraction is multiplied by a given coefficient to obtain the neutron dose equivalent.Application to radiation protection.
