[ RadSafe ] Proton dosimetry

[Jess L. Addis III]

Yea, this is someone irradiating plastics used in prosthesis to investigate
possible physical effects on the material. Not personal dosimetry, but an
attempt to confirm the calculated exposure produced by the beam.  This work
is being done off site.

I expect the people who are supplying the protons will have the best info on
the calculated dose and ability to measure any exposure to the sample.

Just shaking the tree that is radsafe to see what falls out in an attempt to
help in the future of the research. We will use other radiations this
summer.

What I've seen so far is interesting.

Thanks,
Larry Addis

How about using any method that would register TWO protons (plus two 
neutrons)?

Of course if the beam flux is high, it would melt, but for environmental 
studies, ZnS based scintillation detectors..
