Comparison BIPM.RI(I)-K6 of the standards for absorbed dose to water of the NRC, Canada and the BIPM in accelerator photon beams

Main text A key comparison has been made between the absorbed dose to water standards of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC), Canada and the BIPM in accelerator photon beams. The results show the standards to be in agreement within the standard uncertainty of the comparison of 5.8 parts in 103. The results are analysed and presented in terms of degrees of equivalence, suitable for entry in the BIPM key comparison database. To reach the main text of this paper, click on Final Report.
