Questions and Answers

What distinguishes Immediate read dosimeters from Delayed read dosimeters?

  • Immediate read dosimeters use heat for analysis, while Delayed read dosimeters use light.
  • Immediate read dosimeters display a direct reading in real time, while Delayed read dosimeters store the signal for later analysis. (correct)
  • Immediate read dosimeters are processed in an analyzer, while Delayed read dosimeters do not require processing.
  • Immediate read dosimeters produce ultraviolet light, while Delayed read dosimeters produce infrared light.
  • What is the term used to describe the phenomenon where some materials emit light after absorbing radiation?

  • Phosphorescence (correct)
  • Photoluminescence
  • Radioluminescence
  • Thermoluminescence
  • How is the phenomenon of thermoluminescence accelerated?

  • By exposing it to a magnetic field
  • By heating the material (correct)
  • By using a chemical catalyst
  • By applying pressure
