The personal dose equivalent, H p (d), is the quantity recommended by the International
Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU) to be used as an approximation …

In a previous paper, conversion coefficients for the personal dose equivalent, H p (d), for
photons were reported. This note reports values for electrons calculated using similar …

A procedure for providing a conservative estimate of the limiting quantity, HE, the effective
dose equivalent for photons originating from the posterior side of the human body (PA …

Personal dose equivalent, Hp (d), is an interesting quantity. It is defined (1) as the dose
equivalent in soft tissue, at an appropriate depth, d, below a specified point on the body.(Soft …

The ICRU proposed new operational quantities, which are defined in close relation to
effective dose and absorbed dose. Most of the current personal dosemeters were designed …

Operational quantities in radiation protection are defined as conservative estimates of the
protection quantities, which are generally not accessible to measurement. Radiation …

A modified design of dosemeter has been developed to measure the personal dose
equivalent at 10 mm, Hp (10) for photon radiations. By means of a combination filter …

Abstract In October 1992, Working Group 2'Reference Radiations' of ISO TC85/SC2'Nuclear
Energy/Radiation Protection'officially prepared a first draft of a document with the working …

A secondary standard chamber for photon radiation developed for measuring directly the
conventionally true value of the personal dose equivalent, Hp (10), in a slab phantom is now …
