Buildup factors and kerma for Al2O3 and SiO2 in the energy range 0.015-15MeV

2nd International Conference on Advances in Natural and Applied Sciences, ICANAS 2017The energy absorption buildup factors (EABF) have been calculated for some thermoluminescent dosimetric materials (Al2O3 and SiO2) in the energy region 0.015-15MeV up to the penetration depth of 40 mean free paths (mfp). Also, kerma relative to air has been determined for these materials. It is observed that the energy absorption buildup factors and kerma relative to air depend on the photon energy and chemical content. Also, the energy absorption build up factors are found the highest in intermediate energy whereas the lowest in low- as well as high energies. © 2017 Author(s).Agri Ibrahim Cecen University;IC Foudatio
