What distinguishes Immediate read dosimeters from Delayed read dosimeters?
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.
