This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need has arisen for a comprehensive handbook for engineers faced with problems of radiation shielding design. Although there are several excellent books on shielding, they either do not give enough consideration to the many practical design problems, or are limited to special aspects of the subject. Recognizing the universal need, the International Atomic Energy Agency decided to sponsor the publication ofthe present Engineering Compendium on Radiation Shield ing. At the first editorial discussions it was agreed that, if such a book were to be undertaken, it would be appropriate not only to create a useful design tool for the practising engineer but also to include well-referenced basic data for the research worker. Although trying to keep the book down to a reasonable size, the editors have aimed at a complete presentation of the subject, covering and linking both the tech nology and the science of shielding. Efforts to make terms and definitions consistent throughout have been only partially successful, owing to the continuing development of new ideas. However, inconsisten cies that could not be eliminated are identified whenever possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis is made of the heat produced by the absorption of gamma rays in a sample placed into a reactor. It is clearly shown that enormous local (space) variations in gamma flux exist in current reactors. An application to the Hanford reactors is treated in some detail. Although the estimates obtained may be good to but a factor of two, it is clearly shown that in most cases the major portion of the heating is due to (n, [gamma]) reactions within the sample itself, and in some cases to the gamma rays generated in liners and cans, and not from the gamma rays generated in fission, nor from the moderator. Some implications of these results are discussed, among the most important being their application to radiation chemistry in reactors. Several mathematical results for absorption and generation of gamma rays in various bodies which should be useful in estimating dosage rates for samples irradiated in reactors are given (Appendix II). A method for making the calculations for an arbitrary absorption law are given (Appendix III). This method may be used with the true absorption law for gamma rays or even for the calculation of the absorption of the energy of particles possessing a range law of absorption, e.g., [gamma]-rays or protons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2014 in the subject Physics - Thermodynamics, grade: 9.9, , language: English, abstract: This book mainly deals with a systematic study on the determination of multi energetic photon interaction parameters at different γ-energies, density and thermal expansion as a function of temperature of 17 alkali halides using γ-ray attenuation technique. This technique has been applied to alkali halides for the first time to measure thermophysical properties and linear attenuation coefficient as a function of temperature. The results of experimental determination of attenuation coefficient, density and thermal expansion at high temperatures are presented in this book. The study of photon interaction parameters of these materials at different photon energies has also been included in this book. Though there are considerable reports on the determination of thermal expansion of alkali halides, but the studies on variation of density and linear attenuation coefficient with temperature are lacking. The knowledge of photon interaction parameters of different materials is very useful in various fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of measuring the gamma heating in a mixed DT neutron and gamma ray environment was explored. A new detector technique was developed to make this measurement. Gamma heating measurements were made in a low-Z assembly irradiated with 14-Mev neutrons and (n, n(prime)) gammas produced by a Texas Nuclear Model 9400 neutron generator. Heating measurements were made in the mid-line of the lattice using a proportional counter operating in the Continuously-varied Bias-voltage Acquisition mode. The neutron-induced signal was separated from the gamma-induced signal by exploiting the signal rise-time differences inherent to radiations of different linear energy transfer coefficient, which are observable in a proportional counter. The operating limits of this measurement technique were explored by varying the counter position in the low-Z lattice, hence changing the irradiation spectrum observed. The experiment was modelled numerically to help interpret the measured results. The transport of neutrons and gamma rays in the assembly was modelled using the one- dimensional radiation transport code ANISN/PC. The cross-section set used for these calculations was derived from the ENDF/B-V library using the code MC2-2 for the case of DT neutrons slowing down in a low-Z material. The calculated neutron and gamma spectra in the slab and the relevant mass-stopping powers were used to construct weighting factors which relate the energy deposition in the counter fill-gas to that in the counter wall and in the surrounding material. The gamma energy deposition at various positions in the lattice is estimated by applying these weighting factors to the measured gamma energy deposition in the counter at those locations.
