Abstract / scope
ISO 51205:2009 applies to the procedures for preparation, testing, and using the ceric-cerous sulfate dosimetry system to determine absorbed dose (in terms of absorbed dose to water) in materials irradiated by photons (gamma radiation or X-radiation/bremsstrahlung) or high-energy electrons. The system consists of a dosimeter and appropriate analytical instrumentation.
The system is classified as a reference–standard dosimetry system but can also be used as a transfer–standard dosimeter or a routine dosimeter.
