What might it indicate if a worker at a nuclear power plant has noticed that his Dosimeter alarm has been activated?
If a worker's Dosimeter alarm has been activated at a nuclear power plant, it could indicate that they have been exposed to a higher level of radiation than is considered safe. This could suggest a potential safety hazard or breach in protocol that needs to be addressed immediately to prevent further exposure and ensure the worker's health and safety.
What is a dosimeter?

Is a dosimeter a radiation badge that contains a sensitized film?
A dosimeter based on sensitized film is one kind of radiation dosimeter, but there are other different kinds, and film badges are becoming less common. One widely known dosimeter is the direct read "pen style" electroscope dosimeter. Another "pen style" dosimeter is a miniature ionization chamber, but like the film badge dosimeter requires special equipment to read it later in a lab. Probably the most commonly used type of dosimeter outside of emergency response is the TLD, or thermoluminescent dosimeter.
