down to 0.935 (1.9%
combined standard uncertaintiy,
k
=1, x-ray beams,
LiF:Mg,Ti). They also discussed potential differences
due to TLD handling and formulation, and expressed
concern regarding the applicability of determinations
obtained using x-ray beams to other photon fields.

between Λ measurements in the literature and MC
calculations and arrived at
