- Abstract
Simulation of a dosemeter's energy and angular response lowers development cost and time. To support development of a new beta sensitive dosemeter we simulate both the dosemeter and the skin dose in a rod phantom as there are no fluence to dose conversion coefficients in the ICRU Report 47 for electrons. Published spectra for BSS2, N-Series and S-Cs and S-Co were used to define sources, with CAD models used to define the simulation geometry. Simulation tools were validated with experimental beta and photon responses available for the BeOSL photon ring. The developed toolchain was then used to simulate several iterations of a beta sensitive detector element inside a beta ring holder, with the goal to minimise the need for repeated prototype fabrication and characterisation. Simulation results for the final design were compared to measurements on 3D printed prototypes with all radiation qualities, except 90Sr/90Y 0°, falling within measurement uncertainty.
