Question Number: 399 Detection and Measurement In NTE (nuclear track emulsion) film, the tracks are caused by: A) alpha particles. B) beta particles. C) gamma photons. D) recoil neutrons. E) recoil protons. The correct answer is: E In this fast neutron responsive dosimeter, recoil protons from elastic scattering with hydrogen atoms in the film create short "tracks" of ionization as stable silver atoms are created. These tracks are counted either by eye or mechanically and equated...
