The design and construction of an ionization chamber to measure background radiation

Creator:: Weaver, Kenneth Earl
Abstract:: An ionization chamber was constructed, using a fiberglass wall sphere, for the purpose of measuring background radiation. The system consists of the fiberglass wall chamber, 38.85 liters in volume, air filled, not sealed, used in conjunction with a precision capacitor, nulling voltage supply and electrometer. It was calibrated against a...

A method for predicting peak scanning detection efficiency of a cylindrical sodium iodide scintillation detector

Creator:: Duffy, William L.
Abstract:: Scanning surveys of building surfaces and land areas are performed with radiation detection equipment to identify areas of elevated radioactivity. To quantify the extent and magnitude of the contamination, follow-up radiation surveys and soil sampling are usually required. The ability to accurately quantify discrete locations or "hot particles" of contamination...

Measurement of peak kilovoltage across x-ray tubes by ionization methods

Creator:: Burnett, Bruce Merl
Abstract:: Voltage calibration methods used with X-ray tubes are either electrical procedures requiring direct electrical connection or ionization techniques which require no electrical connection to the generating system. One major restriction on the use of electrical methods for measuring the voltage applied to X-ray tubes is that special electrical adaptors are...

Assessing and evaluating the Self-indicating Instant Radiation Alert Dosimeter (SIRAD) for gamma and neutron response

Creator:: Stewart, H. Michael
Abstract:: The Self-indicating Instant Radiation Dosimeter (SIRAD) is credit card size, self reading, single use dosimeter produced by JP Laboratories. The SIRAD has a chemical strip that changes color based upon incident radiation. The color change is instantaneous and cumulative. The card was designed for first responders as a way for...

Assessing and evaluating the energy and angular dependence of the Self-indicating Instant Radiation Alert Dosimeter (SIRAD)

Creator:: Bak, Alysse K.
Abstract:: The Self-indicating Instant Radiation Alert Dosimeter, SIRAD™, manufactured by JP Labs*, is a dosimeter that can be used by emergency response persoimel. It is a user-friendly, inexpensive, and disposable radiation dosimeter. It monitors high doses, 5-200 rads, of ionizing radiation. The card resembles the size of a credit card and...

The design, use and implementation of digital radiation detection and measurement equipment for the purpose of distance instruction

Creator:: Vasquez, David C.
Abstract:: Digital Instrumentation and Detection is becoming the future of radiation detection and measurement. Computers are able to perform digitally what before would have taken an extensive array of analog equipment. The art of teaching radiation detection and measurement is following this same pattern of a shift from purely analog to...
