A simple method to monitor the dose rate of secondary cosmic radiation at altitude.
Journal of Radiological Protection : Official Journal of the Society for Radiological Protection 2019 January
Monitoring the ambient dose equivalent rate at aviation altitudes is an ambitious task, which requires sophisticated dosemeter systems and the possibility to carry out such measurements on board aircraft. A rather simple approach has been investigated in this study: soundings with weather balloons up to an altitude of 30 km. This paper summarises the measurements carried out between 2011 and 2016. The results indicate that annual measurements of the ambient dose equivalent rate at altitudes of around 20 km are a reliable tool to monitor the variation of the dose rate in the atmosphere owing to the solar activity.
