5、ex effect ofinfluence quantities.See ASTM Practice E2628.1.4 This practice applies to electron beams in the energyrange from 1.5 to 12 MeV.1.5 The absorbed dose range depends on the absorbingmaterial and the irradiation and measurement conditions.Minimum dose is approximately 100 Gy and maximum dose
6、 isapproximately 50 kGy.1.6 The average absorbed-dose rate range shall generally begreater than 10 Gys-1.1.7 The temperature range for use of these calorimetricdosimetry systems depends on the thermal resistance of thematerials,on the calibrated range of the temperature sensor,and on the sensitivity
