Abstract

Evaluation of LiF:Mg,Ti thermoluminescence dosemeters (TLDs) according to the high-temperature ratio (HTR) method enables the determination of the dose-average linear energy transfer (LET), the mean quality factor and the dose equivalent in mixed radiation fields of unknown composition. The neutron contribution is assessed by the Extended Pair method calibrated in the CERN-EU High-Energy Reference Field (CERF). The advantages of the small passive detectors as an easy-to-handle monitoring system for in-flight surveillance are demonstrated by measurements on-board north-bound and trans-equatorial flights. The experimental results are compared with calculations by the well-established CARI code.
