Dosimetry measurements of the cosmic rays carried out at the French base located at "dôme C" (Antarctic)
International audience Between 1999 and 2001, the Institut de protection et de sûreté nucléaire (IPSN) has carried out dosimetry measurements for the Institut français pour la recherche et la technologie polaire (IFRTP), in order to estimate the dose received by the staff working at the "dôme C...
