Tritium showers -Reply



Claude,

Kocher (DOE/TIC-11026) gives the equilibrium dose constant for tritium as 0.0121
rad gm/(microCi hr).  It follows that 10,000 pCi/L would produce a dose rate of
about 0.121 micro-rad/hr to the water.  The dose rate to the person, of course,
would be much less.  Is there a need to refine the calculation further?
