Popis: The individual monitoring service at the Helmholtz Zentrum München is currently developing a new eye lens dosemeter to be integrated in radiation protection glasses and a new ring dosemeter using a new BeOSL detector element for extremity dosimetry developed by Dosimetrics. In the design process for the new eye lens dosemeter, MCNP6 Monte Carlo simulations were used to model the energy and angular response of new dosemeters before ordering the expensive tools for injection molding. This study describes the simulation of the dosemeter and detector, and the involved calculations do obtain the response in terms of the radiation protection quantity Hp(3). Simulations were carried out also for existing whole body dosemeters and TLD rings in order to verify the MC tools. With the final dosemeter prototypes becoming available earlier this year, all MC models could be verified and show very good agreement with experimental data.
