With the discovering atomic nucleus, nuclear science started to be used in different fields and researcher focused on radiation protection as it is dangerous for human cell. Thus radiation physics and materials development becomes one of the important subject in science for this purposes. The developed material should be used for radiation shielding. In this work gamma ray shielding properties of some composite materials produced by polymer have been investigated.
Plasma research poses a radiation hazard. Due to the program of deuterium plasma research using the PF-1000 device, it is an intensive source of neutrons (up to 1011 n · pulse −1) with energy of 2,45 MeV and ionizing electromagnetic radiation with a broad energy spectrum. Both types of radiation are mostly emitted in ultra-short pulses (∼100 ns). The aim of this work was to test and calibrate the RSS-131 radiometer for its application in measurements of ultra-short electromagnetic radiation pulses with broad energy spectrum emitted during PF-1000 discharge. In addition, the results of raw measurements performed in the control room are presented.
