title: High-level gamma-ray dosimetry using common TLD phosphors.
abstract: Thermoluminescence of high temperature peaks, ultraviolet radiation (253.7 nm) induced thermoluminescence and phosphorescence, damage effects and optical density changes in a few common TLD phosphors namely CaSO4 : Tm, CaSO4 : Dy, LiF TLD-100 and Li2B4O7 : Mn were studied from the point of view of measuring high level gamma doses (10(2)--10(6) Gy).
