摘要
A fast and simple method for the determination of the efficiency coefficient (eta) of bare CR-39 detector is presented and discussed. The efficiency coefficient of bare CR-39 detector is then calculated by different ways and the obtained values are found to be comparable to each other. The average value of eta of bare CR-39 is found to be 0.20 +/- 0.01 tracks cm(-2) day(-1) per Bq m(-3). (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
