Encapsulated source contact dose estimates incorporating secondary electron emission
(2015-04-01)Secondary electron emission generated at the surface of thin material from interaction with gamma rays form a significant component of the surface dose. The intensity of this emission is known to vary with material composition ... -
A new approach to neutron spectrometry with multi-element scintillators
(2014-02-01)The combined effects of the nuclear industrial renaissance, the events of 9/11, and the Fukushima disaster have had a significant impact on the research and development of radiation detection instrumentation. Notably, there ... -
On the integration of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations with Monte Carlo (MC) radiation transport analysis
(2009-12-01)Numerous scenarios exist whereby radioactive particulates are transported between spatially separated points of interest. An example of this phenomenon is, in the aftermath of a Radiological Dispersal Device (RDD) ...
