Characterization of Thermoluminescent Dosimeters for Neutron Dosimetry at High Altitudes

Neutrons constitute a significant component of the secondary cosmic rays and are one of the most important contributors to natural cosmic ray radiation background dose. The study of the cosmic ray neutrons’ contribution to the dose equivalent received by humans is an interesting and challenging task...
