Radiation Physics Programme

The aim of the programme is:

• to improve knowledge and methods in the field of radiation physics and radiation dosimetry
• to develop new radiation measurement instruments and methods for application in research, industry and medicine
• to develop methods in radiation protection and in nuclear emergency preparedness
  

Currently the work includes:

• Developing luminescence dosimetry methods for retrospective dosimetry including methods for dating of geological deposits
• Developing dosimetry methods for in-vivo medical dosimetry.
• Developing models for atmospheric dispersion of radioactivity. 
• Developing methods for high-dose dosimetry and operating the accredited Risø High Dose Reference Laboratory.
