Abstract
Abstract LR115 cellulose nitrate SSNTD are routinely used for Radon detection. A reading technique with high resolution optical microscope coupled with a scanning system has been recently proposed. In this technique, the efficiency correction that was formerly performed on the residual thickness of the detector is performed on the track area distribution. So all the information that is needed for the measurement is obtained directly during the scanning. This leads to a much simpler and faster reading procedure, when compared to the classical technique that required both spark counting and micrometer residual thickness measure. A complete characterization and performance evaluation of the detector response is discussed, including a measuring range evaluation, a combined uncertainty theoretical calculation and a blind test validation at HPA.
