Abstract

Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) from ordinary household salt has proven high potential for very low dose retrospective dosimetry. In the present paper other common place materials are considered and their dosimetric OSL-properties compared with household salt. The potential for assessment of the effective dose to an individual carrying such materials is investigated.
