Currently, one engineering challenge is designing Generation IV (GEN-IV) Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) with significantly higher thermal efficiencies compared to current NPPs, and to match, or at least to be close to, the ...

For efficient beta detection in a mixed beta gamma field, Monte Carlo simulation models have been built to optimize the thickness of a plastic scintillator, used in whole body monitor. The simulation has been performed ...

In order to be able to qualify and quantify radiation exposure in terms of dose, a Fastscan whole body counter must be calibrated correctly. Current calibration methods do not take the full range of body types into ...
