18、ation) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be

19、 represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International S

20、tandards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least75% of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO4037-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC85, Nuclear energy, S

21、ubcommittee SC2, Radiation protection. This first edition of ISO4037-1, along with ISO-4037-2, cancels and replaces the first edition of ISO4037:1979, which has been technically revised. ISO4037 consists of the following parts, under the general title X and gamma reference radiation for calibrating

22、dosemeters and doserate meters and for determining their response as a function of photon energy. Part 1: Radiation characteristics and production methods; Part 2: Dosimetry of X and gamma reference radiation for radiation protection over the energy ranges8keV to1,3MeV and4MeV to9MeV.

The methods for producing a group of reference radiations for a particular photon-energy range are described in four sections which define the characteristics of these radiations. The four groups of reference radiation are: a) in the ener

25、gy range from about7keV to250keV, continuous filtered X radiation and the gamma radiation of americium-241; b) in the energy range8keV to100keV, fluorescence X radiation; c) in the energy range600keV to1,3MeV, gamma radiation emitted by radionuclides; d) in the energy range4MeV to9MeV, gamma radiati

These reference radiations should be selected from Table 1. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO4037. At the time of the publication, the editions i

31、percentage, defined by the formula: where increment %E is the spectrum width corresponding to half the maximum ordinate of the spectrum NOTEIn the case where fluorescence radiation is present in the spectrum, the spectrum width measured is based upon the continuum only.

40、reference filtered X radiation 4.1 General This clause specifies the characteristics of the reference filtered X radiation and the method by which a laboratory can produce a specified reference radiation. 4.1.1 Radiation quality The quality of a filtered X radiation is characterized in this part of

41、ISO4037 by the following parameters: a) mean energy, , of a beam, expressed in kiloelectronvolts (keV); b) resolution, R E , expressed in percent; c) half-value layer (air kerma), HVL, expressed in millimetres of Al or Cu; d) homogeneity coefficient, h. In practice, the quality of the radiation obta

42、ined depends primarily on the high-voltage across the X-ray tube, the thickness and nature of the total filtration, and the properties of the target. In order to ensure the production of the reference radiation in conformance with the given specifications, the installation shall comply with certain

43、conditions. These are described in4.2. 4.1.2 Choice of reference radiation This part of ISO4037 specifies four series of reference radiation (see Table 2), each series being characterized by the resolution of the spectrum: a) a low air-kerma rate series (see Figure 1); b) a narrow-spectrum series (s

44、ee Figure 2); c) a wide-spectrum series (see Figure 3); d) a high air-kerma rate series (see Figure 4). The spectra shown in Figure 1 to Figure 4 are for the most part based upon theoretical calculations3 and are only given as examples. Some practical spectra are also included and examples of practi

45、cal measurements of spectra are given in references4,5,6,7 and8. The narrowest spectra, i.e.those with the lowest resolution, should be used for measurements of the variation of the response of an instrument with proton energy, provided that the air-kerma rates of that series are consistent with the

46、 range of the instrument under test. The high air-kerma rate series is suitable for determining the overload characteristics of some instruments. EBSISO4037-1:1996 4 BSI 10-1999 Details of the operating conditions for each of the four series are given in Table 3, Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6. Table

47、7 shows an example of the additional filtration required to produce the radiation qualities of the high air-kerma rate series for particular values of the fixed filtration. For the lower air-kerma rate, the narrow-spectrum and the wide-spectrum series, a “reference laboratory” shall verify, by a spe

48、ctrometric study, that the value of the mean energy produced is within 3%, and the resolution, R E , of the spectra is within 10% of the values listed in Table 3, Table 4 and Table 5. For reference radiation for these three series having mean energies lower than30keV, the mean energies shall be with

49、in 5% and the resolutions within 15% of the values in Table 3, Table 4 and Table 5. For reference radiation using additional filtration of1mm AI or less, the target angle, target condition and air path strongly influence the values of the mean energies, resolutions and HVLs. If a laboratory does not have a spectrometry system, the high voltages and filtration characteristics listed in Table 3, Table 4 and Table 5 shall be used and the reference r
