Tracking gaseous radioactivity through a spallation neutron source from origin to discharge
An exercise has been carried out at the ISIS Spallation Neutron Source to track quantitatively the progress of radioactive air all the way from the machine areas where gaseous radioactivity is generated to the discharge stack from which gaseous radioactivity is vented to atmosphere. Calculations and measurements have been found to agree to within a factor ∼2, which is regarded as satisfactory in view of the many uncertainties involved and the approximations and assumptions that have had to be made in order to make the exercise tractable. A satisfying corollary is that the entire ‘life cycle’ of gaseous activity within ISIS, from generation through to discharge, is well understood.
期刊介绍:
Applied Radiation and Isotopes provides a high quality medium for the publication of substantial, original and scientific and technological papers on the development and peaceful application of nuclear, radiation and radionuclide techniques in chemistry, physics, biochemistry, biology, medicine, security, engineering and in the earth, planetary and environmental sciences, all including dosimetry. Nuclear techniques are defined in the broadest sense and both experimental and theoretical papers are welcome. They include the development and use of α- and β-particles, X-rays and γ-rays, neutrons and other nuclear particles and radiations from all sources, including radionuclides, synchrotron sources, cyclotrons and reactors and from the natural environment.
The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria.
Papers dealing with radiation processing, i.e., where radiation is used to bring about a biological, chemical or physical change in a material, should be directed to our sister journal Radiation Physics and Chemistry.
