Performance of thermoluminescent materials for high dose dosimetry. In: INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF THE INTERNATIONAL RADIATION PROTECTION ASSOCIATION, 12th, October 19-24, 2008, Buenos Aires, Argentina. <b>Proceedings...</b> Disponível em: http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/15934.http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/15934. Cases involving high-doses of ionizing radiation are becoming increasingly common.The objective of this work was to characterize thermoluminescent materials for the dosimetry of workers exposed to high doses. Samples of TLD-200, TLD-400 and TLD-800 pellets from Thermo Electron Corporation were studied in gamma high-doses. Dose-response curves were obtained for doses between 100 mGy and 100 Gy. The reproducibility, the lower detection limits and dose-response curves were obtained for all three materials. The different kinds of detectors show usefulness for dosimetry of workers exposed accidently to high doses.openAccessionizing radiationsgamma radiationpersonneloccupational exposureradiation dosesthermoluminescent dosimetryTexto completo de eventohttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-7362-2455
