Abstract
An apparatus for the direct measurement of total radiation dose from the difference in electrochemical potential between an unirradiated solution containing known concentrations of ceric and cerous ions and a gamma or electron irradiated solution initially containing the same known concentrations of ceric and cerous ions. The apparatus comprises a cell which is divided into two sections, which are separated by a porous frit. Unirradiated solution is placed in one section of the cell and irradiated solution is placed in the other section such that the potential difference across the two sections of the cell is converted into a total radiation dose reading of the irradiated solution.
