"In the event of large scale radiation accidents or malevolent acts with radioactive materials, non-invasive and sufficiently accurate retrospective dosimetry methods are necessary for fast triage and quantitative dose estimate of the stricken individuals. NaCl in form of household salt is a cheap and widely available material. This study investigated the potential of household salt for purposes of retrospective and accident dosimetry using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). Attention was concentrated on sensitivity and background signal, minimum detectable dose, dose and energy dependence of the OSL signal, fading, optimisation of the OSL read-out procedure and application of analytical protocols which do not require a specific calibration. A potential of NaCl as a neutron activation dosemeter was considered also. The behaviour of the OSL signal observed was found to be favourable for dosimetry."@en . . .
