USE OF LIGHT AIRCRAFT FOR SURVEYING FOR RADIOACTIVE GROUND CONTAMINATION

Description: The recent Windscale incident has emphasized the need for available light aircraft and proper instrumentation for aerial surveys following a release of large quantities of airborne radioactive materials. Early tests (1951 and 1955) are reviewed, and the program now in effect at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory is presented. (auth)

A CURRENT REVIEW OF BODY FLUID ANALYSIS, PROCEDURES, AND METHOD OF REPORTING--JANUARY 1957

Description: Direct alpha counting to determine fissile material in dilnte solutions of high total solids content is likely to be inaccurate due to the difficulty of preparing thin sources. This report describes a neutron-activation analysis method which eliminates this risk. Results obtained by the neutronactivation analysis for U/sup 238/ in solution are compared with results obtained from other methods. The standard deviation and sensitivity are shown. (auth)

Radiation Dose Received by Passengers and Crew on Planes Carrying the Maximum Number of Radiation Units

Description: The dose of ionizing radiation received by passengers and crew members traveling on commercial airlines which transport radioisotopes is of interest to all persons who travel the airways frequently. Tariff regulations permit the air transport of 40 units of radioactive materials where one unit represents a quantity of radioisotopes which when packaged delivers a dose rate of one mr/hr at a distance of one meter from the center of the package. Using five different types of commercial aircraft, s… more
