摘要：
Conversion coefficients fluence to local skin equivalent dose, as introduced in ICRP Publication 116, 2010, are calculated for positrons of energies ranging from 10 keV to 10 MeV using the code MCNP6. Fluence to dose equivalent conversion coefficients H'(0.07,0 degrees)/Phi are calculated for positrons of energy ranging between 20 keV and 10 MeV. A comparison between operational dose quantity H'(0.07,0 degrees) and the Local-Skin equivalent Dose shows an overall good agreement between these two quantities, except between 60 keV and 100 key.
