  2. 6. Household salt as an emergency radiation dosemeter for retrospective dose assessments using optically stimulated luminescence

    Author : Maria Christiansson; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Optically stimulated luminescence OSL ; household salt; NaCl; retrospective dosimetry; accident dosimetry;

    Abstract : In the event of a radiation accident, it is crucial to make rapid estimates of the absorbed dose received by both emergency workers, so-called first responders, and members of the public. Today, only personnel in rescue teams responding to nuclear emergencies have access to individual dosemeters. READ MORE

  4. 7. Route attribution of chemical warfare agents : Retrospective classification of unknown threat samples

    Author : Karin Höjer Holmgren; Johan Dahlén; Crister Åstot; Peter Haglund; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Impurity profiling; Chemical attribution signature; Route sourcing;

    Abstract : Although chemical warfare agents (CWAs) are prohibited under international law, there have been numerous crimes that violates the 1997 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) during the last decade, especially in the civil war in Syria where sarin, mustard gas and chlorine have all been used. CWAs have also been used in political assassinations and attempts thereof. READ MORE

  5. 8. Optically Stimulated Luminescence for Retrospective Radiation Dosimetry. The Use of Materials Close to Man in Emergency Situations

    Author : Therése Geber-Bergstrand; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : Retrospective dosimetry; Emergency dosimetry; OSL;

    Abstract : If an accident or attack involving radiological or nuclear material were to happen, people from the general public would be at risk of exposure to ionising radiation. Unlike people working with ionising radiation, for whom level of exposure to radiation is constantly monitored with dosemeters, people from the general population do not wear dosemeters; thus, the dose estimations for these individuals must be performed using alternative methods.

  7. 10. Chewing gum and human hair as retrospective dosimeters

    Author : Axel Israelsson; Håkan B.L. Pettersson; Eva Lund; Håkan Gustafsson; Mats Eriksson; Bastian Breustedt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Retrospective dosimeters are sometimes needed after radiological/nuclear (RN) exposures to determine the doses to individuals. Conventional dosimeters may not be at hand or may not be applicable calling for alternative materials. READ MORE
