Nouvelles possibilites des jonctions p-n de silicium dans la dosimetrie des particules nucleaires

Abstract By measuring the number of electric charges produced through ionization in a silicon surface-barrier p-n junction, it is possible to evaluate the absorbed dose of each type of particles in a complex beam of α, β and γ rays and to be aware of the collection share of each such radiations. The detector and the results obtained with α, β and γ sources of various energies are described.
