Abstract

The report considers in some detail the likely future application to Radiation Dosimetry of the development of various microwave resonance based calorimeter designs. The predicted sensitivity of microwave resonance calorimetry makes it clear that such a system can be competitive with conventional calorimetry, even at room temperature. Much greater advantages accrue if cryogenic operation can be implemented in an ionising radiation application. In addition a number of other possible longer term applications of these technologies have also been outlined which should be considered for future collaborative work between DEM and DQL scientists.
