The distribution of the absorbed dose within the irradiated product is a
complex function of the product density and homogeneity, the position and
shape of the radiation source, as well as the design of the irradiator. In
this paper, detailed mapping of absorbed radiation doses in products of
different density: gauze, plastic, and soil, is performed. Positions of
minimum and maximum absorbed radiation dose were determined, and the
homogeneity of irradiation of products was calculated using the
ethanol-monochlorobenzene oscillotitrator dosimetry system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
