In modern day baseball, teams generally have five starting pitchers, and they take it in turn to start a game every fifth day (hence the phrase rotation). Sometimes, if the schedule pans out, a team can get away with a four man rotation, and in the distant past some teams managed a three man rotation.
How Do Dosimeters Work? Dosimeters measure prolonged exposure to potentially dangerous effects. They are used by workers and scientists in a variety of situations, but the most common dosimeters measure either ionizing radiation or noise over periods of time.
DEFINITION. Dosimetry is the study, measurement, method of measurement, or instrument of measurement of radiation dose. Dosimetry often refers to the status of wearing a personnel badge that measures and monitors dose. It may also refer to dose history and the records where dose history is maintained.
