Calorimetry
Abstract
The techniques and equipment currently employed for calorimetric dosimetry were briefly surveyed and the status of some recent measurements presented. The problems which remain to be investigated are: the thermal defect, the suitability of A-150 plastic as a material for heavy charged particle calorimetry and calorimeter designs that are appropriate for specific radiation situations, including cryogenic calorimeters.
