A web-based medical radionuclide database

Creator:: Jue, Tracy M.
Abstract:: Currently the Food and Drug Administration publishes radiopharmaceutical information for physicians to choose appropriate medical diagnosis and therapy for their patients. The primary functions of these radiopharmaceuticals are diagnosis and delivering doses to a patient with appropriate energy, biological half life, chemical behavior, and radiological half life. These radiopharmaceuticals preferentially...

Development of a personal computer-based reactivity meter for a research reactor

Creator:: Bakir, Alla J. M.
Abstract:: A personal computer with a Data Acquisition and Control Adapter interface has been used to monitor the power of the Oregon State University TRIGA Reactor, and from the time behavior of the reactor power the reactivity has been computed using the point kinetics equations and displayed on a digital read-out...

Monte Carlo model of a capture gamma ray analyzer for a seafloor core sample

Creator:: Almasoumi, Abdullah Muhammad Sultan
Abstract:: Of great benefit, but not limited to seafloor mineral exploration, is a technique that fairly rapidly determines the composition of a drilled vibracore (in a time comparable to the time involved in obtaining the core). The rapid assessment is desired to predict whether a given region warrants further exploration by...

Design and simulation of a self-powered neutron spectrometer

Creator:: Kropp, Edward K.
Abstract:: A self-powered neutron detector (SPND) is a device that, coupled with a current meter, provides a readout proportional to neutron population. This thesis discusses the design parameters of an array of such devices, their characteristics, and the use of these devices as a self-powered neutron spectrometer (SPNS) to provide information...

Determining the activity distribution on a radioactive stent using plastic scintillation techniques

Creator:: Bergman, Joshua J.
Abstract:: Re-occlusion of arteries following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) remains a post-operative issue in the treatment of artery blockage. This re-narrowing of the luminal cavity, a condition called restenosis, has been attributed to the injury induced by PTCA balloon insertion. While arterial recoil can be completely prevented by a coronary...

Monte Carlo uncertainty reliability and isotope production calculations for a fast reactor

Creator:: Miles, Todd L.
Abstract:: With the advent of more powerful, less expensive computing resources, more and more attention is being given to Monte Carlo techniques in design application. In many circles, stochastic solutions are considered the next best thing to experimental data. Statistical uncertainties in Monte Carlo calculations are typically determined by the first...

Research reactor coolant monitoring using automated gamma ray spectrometry

Creator:: TenBrook, Warren Kermit
Abstract:: An integrated sampling and gamma ray spectrometry system has been developed for analysis of TRIGA reactor primary cooling water. A microcomputer controls pumps and valves using BASIC and assembly language programs to pump 300 ml liquid samples into a reference geometry surrounding a Ge(Li) detector. Gamma ray spectra are acquired...

Modeling of interferences in gamma ray pulse height distributions

Creator:: Harris, Richard D. (Richard Donald), 1961-
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to develop a model to calculate gamma ray pulse height distributions that closely approximate measured ones. The model was used to produce a pulse height distribution for a postaccident coolant sample from a nuclear reactor. Lower limits of detection were calculated for certain key...
