line source calc. -Reply



Patrick,

Using  the specific dose rate constant from Tschurlovits, Leitner and Daverda
(Rad. Prot. Dosimetry 40, 2, pp 77-82, 1992) and the standard formula for an
unshielded line source, I calculate the dose rate a foot from the center of the
source to be about 147 rem/hr.
