In this research work, powder hydroxyapatite samples were synthesized using a solid-state reaction method to investigate the annealing effect. The crystal structure was carried out by XRD system produced data, and the Rietveld method using MAUD software. The samples were irradiated in different radiation absorbed doses up to 1500Gy and their thermoluminescence properties including glow curve, response, fading effect and reproducibility were investigated from dosimetry point of view. The results showed that the annealing temperature significantly affects the crystal structure and thermoluminescence dosimetry response of hydroxyapatite samples, consequently. It was concluded that high temperature annealing process can lead to formation of β-TCP crystal phase during the synthesis of hydroxyapatite. Percentage of this formed phase increases with rising the temperature, and finally leads to increasing of the thermoluminescence response. It was concludded that in the solid state reaction method to increasing the TL response, it is better to use high annealing temperature for the synthesis of hydroxyapatite sample.

Irradiation of agricultural products is used to optimize properties and pest control and also increase the storage time of products. The desired irradiation result is obtained when the required dose is given to the sample. Dosimetry is a method for separating and classifying materials and equipment that is provided to the user to confirm the acceptance of irradiation and control the performance. In this work, Chromium Nitrate solutions with concentrations of 0.16, 0.24, and 0.32 mM have been prepared and irradiated with gamma rays between 100 to 1000 Gy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the dosimetry of these samples in the range of irradiation of agricultural products. Results show that the higher concentration sample is linear in about 100 to 1000 Gy dosimetry range and the optimal concentration must be found to achieve a stable sample in about 3 weeks periods. Also, samples that are in a darker environment are more stable than samples that are in a lighter environment.
