Hi all.

In investigating the output of a 2.5 MeV flash X-ray machine, someone
expressed the output in terms of "mrads silicon". I'm not familiar with
that term. Could someone please explain it to me? Absorbed dose in
silicon? Important bec were calculating concrete shielding thickness?

Beam measurements were made with TLDs, if that helps.

Thanks in advance.
