We experimentally obtained the responses of two personal dosemeters (PDs, D-shuttle and Dose-i) attached on five age-specific phantoms under rotational irradiation geometry, which simulated an environment that was radiologically affected by the 2011 Fukushima nuclear accident using of a 137Cs source. Although the PD responses showed an angular phase shift by the PD position on the phantoms, the angular dependence was small when the contamination was widely distributed. The PD responses decreased as much as ~10% with the increase in the phantoms' body size. Although there were ~17% variations in the PD/ADE (ambient dose equivalent) ratio depending on the different PDs, this variation was due to the fact that D-shuttle was calibrated with the inclusion of a safety margin. The PD/ADE ratios were similar to the effective dose to ADE ratios for corresponding age-specific phantoms. Our results suggest that these two PDs can provide reasonable estimates for age-dependent effective doses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
