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 …

Encapsulated source contact dose estimates incorporating secondary electron emission
Secondary electron emission generated at the surface of thin material from interaction with gamma 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 …
