Particle size analysis of PAGAT gel dosimetry

Abstract

This work represents the response of PAGAT gel dosimeter using UV-Visible Spectrophotometry. The particle size and optimal wavelength of the gel sample were analyzed from the obtained spectrum. In addition, the compressibility was estimated using Ultrasonic Interferometer. The results showed that the particle size of the PAGAT varied appreciably with respect to the dose applied but did not vary significantly with the post irradiation time.
