Electron Spin Resonance (ESR)




Hello Radsafers!

I would like to have a discussion concerning the use of ESR.  Specifically 
what facilities
are using this technique to establish radiation dose and what are the limits 
of this
biodosimetry tool.

A very interesting paper, " Collective Biodosimetry as a Dosimetric 'Gold 
Standard':
A Study of Three Radiation Accidents"  by B. Pass et al was published in the 
March
1997 HP Journal with information on ESR.
