An evaluation of the radiation similarity between soft biological tissue and a modified ferrosulfate dosimeter

On the basis of recent recommendations on soft biotissue composition and data concerning value of specific neutron kerma for a number of element atoms within the energy from thermal one to 29 MeV obtained were the values of electron density, effective atomic number and specific kerma of neutrons for soft biotissue and ferrosulphate dosimeter sensitized by benzoic acid. The data are proposed for practical use in radiobiological experiments.
