Equations and tabular data are presented for calculating the absorbed dose in rads when the field conditions of expcsure to radiation are known. The elements considered here are those most commonly found in low-Z organic materials, such as plastics, elastomers. lubricants, and insulating materials. The types of radiation considered are gamma radiation, fast monoergic electron beams, and neutrons having a spectrum of energies. Examples are included to illustrate application of the formulas.
