Abstract: An ionizing radiation detection system can include a self-quenching sensing element having a substantially sealed enclosure containing a plurality of gases. The plurality of gases can include an ionizing gas to ionize in response to receiving a particle of ionizing radiation. The plurality of gases can also include a halogen quenching gas. In a particular embodiment, the plurality of gases can include an oxygen-containing gas in an amount of at least approximately 5 % by pressure of a total pressure of the plurality of gases. In another particular embodiment, the partial pressure of the oxygen-containing gas can be from approximately 2666 Pa to approximately 16000 Pa. In another embodiment, the radiation detection system can include an anode having a composition that is more resistant to erosion by gasses within the sensing element.

Abstract: A personal radiation dosimeter may comprise a housing that is substantially light-impermeable. The housing contains a radiation energy sensitive component (RESC) that is transported by a user. A reader has ingress and egress for the housing, and an internal stimulation light to photo-stimulate the RESC. An internal photosensor senses photons from the RESC after photo-stimulation and generates a signal. The photosensor may convert and amplify the RESC signal into a signal corresponding to the amount of radiation. A processing circuit may be used to assess an amount of radiation incident on the RESC based on the signal. In addition, the reader may contain a reset light to reset the RESC for reuse after the amount of radiation is detected.
