Abstract
Dosimetric quantities at various distances from a 30 cm diameter polyethylene sphere moderated 241Am-Be source were investigated using the Bonner sphere spectrometer system. The different international commercial unfolding codes were applied to unfold the neutron spectrum, and their shapes were compared to each other. Additionally, the integrated neutron fluence rates overall spectrum and fractional neutron fluence rates were deduced and compared between the results obtained from different unfolding codes. As an important quantity applying in radiation safety assessment, the neutron ambient dose equivalent rates were also calculated and compared to each other to verify the utility feasibilities of the codes.
