Criticality accident neutron dosimetry is based on measurement conducted using personal dosemeters and biological samples of persons exposed to neutrons from an accidental criticality. The authors computed the response functions of a personal dosemeter (NCL-TLD badge) and hair (sulfur) activation per unit incident neutron fluence, and established a response dataset compiled using 140 neutron spectra that are likely to be encountered in a criticality accident.
