Annual Effective Dose of Cosmic Rays Exposure in Myanmar Khaing Thazin Maw Nyein Wint Lwin Radiation is exposed in various forms every time. In the report of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR 2000), the global average cosmic rays’ exposure contributes to about 16% of the annual effective dose from natural radiation sources. Cosmic rays exposure relies upon three factors, elevation, geographic locations, and solar activity. Among them, elevation (altitude) mainly affects cosmic ray dose rates. The annual effective dose due to cosmic rays was evaluated for different locations in Myanmar using EXPACS program (EXcel-based Program for calculating Atmospheric Cosmic-ray Spectrum). The annual effective dose due to cosmic ray exposure in Myanmar was estimated from 0.25mSv to 0.52mSv. 2020-05-30 http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12678/0000005555 https://meral.edu.mm/records/5555
