Abstract
A dosimeter container comprising a housing portion and a shield portion that surrounds the housing portion is provided. The housing portion houses a radiation dosage measuring device for measuring a dosage of predetermined radiation other than neutron radiation. The shield portion is composed of a member made of a material that transmits predetermined radiation and shields neutron radiation. The shield portion is a LiF sintered body, in particular, a 6LiF sintered body. Further, the shield portion includes at least two or more shield portion components (a body portion and a lid portion), in which adjacent members can abutt against each other. The housing portion is same size as or larger than the size of the radiation dosage measuring device; and the housing portion extends over the entirety of the components. The dosimeter container is preferably used as a dosage measuring body having a radiation dosage measuring device stored in the housing portion.
