内容記述 |
A γ-ray calibration field using a sealed 133Ba source for photon energy in the 300–400 keV range was established at the Japan Atomic Energy Agency to evaluate radiation protection devices under low dose rate conditions. To suppress low-energy γ-ray components, a 2-mm lead filter was applied. The photon fluence spectrum was measured using a CdTe spectrometer and an unfolding method, yielding a spectrum with a mean energy of 321 keV. Reference air kerma rates were determined using ionization chambers calibrated in a 137Cs field, with energy correction factors applied. Spectrometry using a CeBr₃ scintillation spectrometer combined with the G(E) function method was employed to validate these corrections. Spectrum-averaged conversion coefficients were derived from the measured spectrum, indicating equivalence to the N-400 radiation quality. This field provided air kerma rates from 0.22 to 2.13 μGy h−1, suitable for testing devices used in environmental monitoring and nuclear emergency response. |
