Abstract: Photographic emulsion is irradiated under gamma rays irradiation of ¹³⁷Cs in the IAEA/WHO secondary standard dosimetry laboratory. Dose-response of the film is established. The sensitivity of the film is determined. The dose-rate effect is studied and discussed.

Keywords: gamma irradiation; photographic emulsions; dose response; energy transfer model; low radiation.
