Encapsulated source contact dose estimates incorporating secondary electron emission
… rays form a significant component of the surface dose. The intensity of this emission is known to vary with material composition and incident radiation energies. The goal of this research effort is to estimate the emission strength from radioactive sources utilized in the early history of cancer …

Examination of secondary electrons generated by encapsulated gamma sources to improve contact dosimetry estimates
… gamma sources can play a large role in the dose measured near the surface of the encapsulation. The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) Report - 40 contains contact dose rate conversion factors for encapsulated gamma sources, along with recommended secondary …
