Technical Aspects of the Quality Management System (QMS) for the Radiation Dosimetry Laboratory at ELI-NP Facility
Journal Title: Cumhuriyet Science journal - Year 2018, Vol 39, Issue 1
Abstract
The individual and environmental passive monitoring program of the Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) will use a combination of Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) and Solid State Nuclear Track Detector – (SSNTD) detectors. The OSL dosimeters are dedicated for X-rays/gamma radiation monitoring and will contain BeO detectors which provide the personal dose equivalent and the ambient dose equivalent or the directional dose equivalent according to SR EN 62387-1:2012. The SSNTDs are from poly-allyl diglycol carbonate (CR39), whose performance and test requirements are conform to the criteria of ISO 21909-1:2015 and ISO 8529-3:1998 standards. All the activities of the Radiation Dosimetry Laboratory from ELI-NP will comply the requirements of the ISO/IEC 17025:2005 standard. This paper presents the management of the technical aspects of Quality Management System (QMS) implemented in the Radiation Dosimetry Laboratory ELI-NP facility, Romania. The accuracy and reliability of laboratory tests are determined by factors such as human factors; accommodation and environmental conditions; methods of analyzing and validating methods; used equipment; traceability of the measurement; sampling; manipulation of measurement items. All of the factors above will contribute to total measurement uncertainty. For this purpose an important role it has the effective management of the technical aspects of the QMS.

Investigation on Li (i = l, β, and γ)–to-Lα X-ray Intensity Ratios of Tl in Thallium Compounds
The Li(i = l, β, and γ)–to-Lα X-ray intensity ratios of Tl in some thallium compounds were measured by EDXRF spectrometer. These compounds were excited by 59.5 keV gamma-rays from a 241Am annular radioactive source. L X-...
Experimental Investigation of Cooling - Heating Performance of Counter Flow Ranque-Hilsch Vortex Tubes Having Different Length Diameter Ratio
In this study, a counter flow Ranque-Hilsch Vortex Tube having 6 nozzles was experimentally investigated. The vortex tube’s Length – diameter (L/D) ratios were 10 and 12.5 and compressed air was used as working fluid and...
A Theorem on Absolute Summability of Infinite Series
In this paper, a theorem on absolute summability of infinite series is obtained by taking almost increasing sequence instead of positive non-decreasing sequence. Also, some results of absolute summability are given.
An Application On The Lucas Numbers And Infinite Toeplitz Matrices
In this paper, we firstly establish the regular matrix by using Lucas numbers. Then, by introducing the sequence space with the help of the matrix , we show that this space is a BK-space and isomorphic to the space . A...
The Local Stability Analysis of a Nonlinear Discrete-Time Population Model with Delay and Allee Effect
In this work, we present a delay general nonlinear discrete-time population model with and without Allee effects which occur at low population density. We investigated local stability conditions of equilibrium point of b...
