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.
Noise dosimeters are manufactured to IEC 61252, the international standard for dosimeters. These are classed as âType 2â, which is the required accuracy for workplace noise regulations. Noise Regulations stipulate, to check the accuracy of the dosimeter, that the dosimeter is checked with a field calibrator before use.
