Abstract:
The air absorbed dose rate factor of high pressure ionization chamber was calculated by Monte-Carlo method for
60Co and
137Cs source, and the calculated result was compared with the calibrated result in the standard reference gamma radiation field of
60Co and
137Cs. The relative deviation between calculated and calibrated value is 0.65% for
137Cs reference gamma radiation, and is -5.5% for
60Co reference gamma radiation. The results from two methods are accorded with each other in the range of uncertainty.
