Tiny Radiation Doses Measured By Chemical
Science Service reports U S Naval Research Laboratory researchers using a calcium sulfate manganese phosphor to measure ultra small radiation doses by thermoluminescence. The material exceeds typical dosimeter sensitivity, detecting doses as low as ten thousandths of a roentgen, with decay correction based on exposure time. It has applications in atmospheric UV and X ray studies and medical X ray dosages.
