A significant reduction in the bandwidth necessary to transmit the coincident events to a histogramming circuit can be achieved by using this fact. Since the coincident events occur randomly, there is a finite chance that no coincident events occur within a clock cycle. We present an architecture that uses the vacant clock cycles to transmit any extra events that occur during non-zero clock cycles. An analysis of this architecture along with a Monte Carlo simulation show that a reduction in complexity can be achieved while maintaining virtually no event loss at coincidence rates near channel saturation. This architecture has been implemented in a VLSI gate array and is presented in the paper.","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116989974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is especially true regarding nuclear safety-related equipment which is considered to be part of the \"Safety-Related structures, systems, or components that are relied upon to remain functional during and following design basis events to ensure the integrity of the reactor coolant pressure boundary, the capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown, and the capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents that could result in potential offsite exposure comparable to lOCFR part 100 guidelines\" consistent with 10CFR50.65(1). In addition electrical nuclear safety related equipment which may be subject to a harsh environment must be maintained in a state of readiness to perform during the harsh environmental conditions of the nuclear accident. A cost- effective surveillance and maintenance program should assure that equipment adequacy to perform or remain operable is retained. This paper describes the criteria used for selection of a Non-Intrusive Condition Evaluation (NICE) system by Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) to assess selected conditions of relatively inaccessible incontainment motors during normal operation. It also describes the successful results from use of such a system.","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116272361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In such procedures, the preferred radiolabel is often tritium. Presently, binding assays involving tritium are carried out using inconvenient and expensive techniques which rely on the use of scintillation fluid counting systems. This traditional method involves both time-consuming laboratory protocols and the generation of substantial quantities of radioactive and chemical waste. The authors have developed a novel technology to measure the tritium content of biological specimens that does not rely on scintillation fluids. The tritiated samples can be positioned directly under a large area, monolithic array of specially prepared avalanche photodiodes which record the tritium activity distribution at each point within the field of view of the array. The 1 mm/sup 2/ sensing elements exhibit an intrinsic tritium beta detection efficiency of 27% with high gain uniformity and very low cross talk.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"C-20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126778075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several iterative reconstruction algorithms have been proposed to compensate for these degradations, as well as to suppress noise. These methods require the use of a realistic projector and back-projector pair which can accurately model the physics of photon transport. Here, the authors describe a projector/backprojector pair which accurately models both photon attenuation and the distance-dependent detector response, and provides a substantial decrease in computational complexity over previous methods. The computational savings are obtained by using the frequency distance principle (FDP) to incorporate distance-dependent blurring into the projector/back-projector pair. Since this procedure can be implemented using FFT methods, distance-dependent blurring can be modeled with a substantial reduction in the number of computations required. Simulation studies using a paint source object and the Hoffman bit-map brain phantom have shown that use of the FDP based projector-backprojector pair can reduce the computation time required for iterative reconstruction, with minimal loss of accuracy.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123574126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
