  • Title: TL tandem systems for the determination of effective energy in X radiation beams.
    Author: Oliveira ML, Maia AF.
    Journal: Appl Radiat Isot; 2010; 68(4-5):788-90. PubMed ID: 20097085.
    Abstract:
    Tandem systems usually comprise two detectors with different radiation energy responses and are utilized to determine the effective energy of unknown radiation beams. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the influence of absorbed dose on tandem curves obtained for different TL materials. In the studied dose interval, the results demonstrate that there is no significant influence of dose on the tandem curves. Therefore, the reliability of these systems for the determination of radiation beam effective energy was confirmed.
