Bibliography
Describes the requirements for reference beta radiation fields produced by radio-nuclide sources to be used for the calibration of personal and area dosimeters and dose-rate meters to be used for the determination of the quantities H[p](0,07) and H'(0,07), and for the determination of their response as a function of beta particle energy and angle of incidence.
