Key comparison BIPM.RI(I)-K9 of the absorbed dose to water standards of the LNE-LNHB, France, and the BIPM in medium-energy x-rays

Abstract

A key comparison has been made between the absorbed dose to water standards of the LNE-LNHB, France, and the BIPM in the medium-energy x-ray range. The results show the standards to be in general agreement at the level of the expanded (k = 2) uncertainty of the comparison of 2 parts in 102. The results are presented in terms of degrees of equivalence for entry in the BIPM key comparison database. Main text To reach the main text of this paper, click on Final Report.
