Boredom, Buttons, and Booze: The Lifeways of an Enlisted Soldier Stationed at Fort Hoskins (35BE15), Oregon

Creator:: James, Shane P.
Abstract:: In 1976-77 and 2010, Oregon State University (OSU) excavated portions of the enlisted men’s barracks and privy at Fort Hoskins, a Civil War-era fort. In operation from 1856 to 1865, this fort served as part of a security network to protect and monitor the recently created Coast Indian Reservation. The...

Skin depth dose response of an ionization chamber and a thermo-luminescent dosimeter system using low energy X-rays

Creator:: Fowler, Adam (Adam James)
Abstract:: The use of Ionization Chambers and Thermo-luminescent dosimeters (TLD's) in the medical field has established a need to determine if the skin depth dose response is comparable between the two detectors. This research will determine if the dose response from an Ionization chamber is comparable to a Thermo-luminescent dosimeter system...

Dosimetry Model for Alpha Emitters in a Radioactive Skin Patch for Treatment of Early-Stage Nonmelanoma Skin Cancers

Creator:: Squillante, Joyce
Abstract:: Nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most common malignancy in Caucasian populations. One existing treatment modality for NMSCs is external radiotherapy delivered to the skin cancer tumor by a beta-emitter-containing radioactive skin patch. Alpha emitters, with their higher linear energy transfer than beta particles and shorter range in tissue, make...

A Game of Silent Irreverence : Passive Resistance in The Dalles, Oregon

Creator:: Maddoux, Maryanne
Abstract:: 210 East First Street (site 35WS453) contains the only extant remains of a once thriving Overseas Chinese settlement, in the city of The Dalles, Oregon. Very little is known about the everyday lives of these early settlers, or the pressures that they faced. This thesis will help to enrich the...

An Archaeological Analysis of the Architectural Artifacts and Features at the Robert Newell Homestead Site (35MA41)

Creator:: Modelski, Emily
Abstract:: This thesis will explore the architectural material culture excavated at the Robert Newell Homestead (35MA41), currently located in Champoeg, Oregon. Specifically, the research focuses on the vernacular architecture or the features and construction methods used that both reflect the environment and the cultural traditions of the dwellings occupants. The Robert...

Just Beneath the Surface : Analysis of Excavations at 35WS453, The Dalles Chinatown

Creator:: French, Jamie
Abstract:: In a mostly abandoned block, capped by concrete, the building at 210 East 1st Street, The Dalles, Oregon still stands as one of three remaining structures. This building housed the Wing Hong Hai Company, a mercantile store and Chinese laundry, from 1889 to 1926. Beneath the modern concrete that encircles...

How clean is coal : coal power plant ash pond regulations compared to nuclear reactor decommissioning standards

Creator:: Williams, Manuel P.
Abstract:: Coal power is the prominent source of energy in the United States (U.S.) and around the world. The byproducts of coal power contain many of the same radioactive nuclides that are found in the local environment just in higher concentrations. With so much of this ash being stockpiled, the amount...

A Deterministic Photon and Electron Dosimetry Model for the Lens of the Eye

Creator:: Boozer, David L.
Abstract:: The lens dose equivalent (LDE) is a regulatory limit set to protect radiation workers. Current methods for estimating the LDE are specific to beam sources in a vacuum and require interpolating data from tables. A new set of deterministic equations for photon and electron point sources has been developed. These...

Utilization for a triple-layer phoswich detector for beta spectral stripping

Creator:: Alkhudhiri, Bandar
Abstract:: To quantify the relative activity contributions of beta emitters in mixed emission source spectra, the triple-layer phoswich detector was modeled to generate beta energy absorption spectra from mixed beta sources. These mixed sources include four pure beta emitters (C-14, Tc-99, Sr-90, and Y-90). Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) computer code was...

Development of a Fundamental Depth-Dependent Neutron Dosimetry Model

Creator:: Anspach, Logan J.
Abstract:: Current neutron dosimetry methods rely on the assumption that charged particle equilibrium (CPE) is established within the tissue medium. This maintains that the kinetic energy transferred to the medium (KERMA) is equivalent to absorbed dose. However, this assumption is only valid for large volumes such as the whole body. For...
