MEASURAND Air kerma
Radiation quality Cs-137 beam
The key comparison reference value is the BIPM evaluation of absrobed dose to water.
BIPM.RI(I)-K5
The degree of equivalence of each laboratory i with respect to the key comparison reference value is given by a pair of terms both expressed in mGy/Gy:
the relative difference Di and Ui, its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), with Ui = 2ui.
When required, the degree of equivalence between two laboratories i and j can be evaluated by a pair of terms both expressed in mGy/Gy:
Dij = Di - Dj and Uij , its expanded uncertainty (k = 2). The approximation for Uij is explained in section 5 of the Final Report.
