Abstract :
A new online network for radiation dose measurements offers the opportunity to register the dose rate at the ANKA storage ring every minute. The network consists of six mobile and two stationary monitors with a gamma and a neutron detector and a central computer. The analysis of the dose rate shows a strong correlation between beam energy, beam current, machine parameters and dose rate.
