Abstract:: |
Objective To guarantee the quality of measurements with the radon-thoron discriminative detectors of our laboratory. Methods LD-P radon-thoron discriminative detector participated in the international intercomparison for integrating radon/thoron detectors organized by National Institute of Radiological Science (NIRS,Japan). Detectors were sent to NIRS for exposure. Radon intercomparison was conducted with radon chamber providing three levels of exposure:low, medium and high levels. Thoron intercomparison was carried out at thoron chamber, which also provided three levels of exposure:low, medium and high levels. Detectors were posted back to our laboratory for etching and analysis after exposure. Then the measured values were submitted to NIRS. Finally the reference values were informed of us.Results The relative percent difference (RPD) between the measured value and the reference value for radon was -13.8%, -14.4% and -17.1% at low, medium and high levels respectively, and that of thoron were -14.4%, 8.9% and -3.2% at three levels respectively.Conclusions Both radon and thoron measurement of our detectors rank as "Category I" in the 4th international intercomparisons for integrating radon/thoron detectors with the NIRS radon/thoron chambers. |
