Download or read book About Certain Possibilities of a Model of Radioactive Analysis of Especially Clean Substances written by I. A. Maslov and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of highly sensitive methods (10 to the -6th power to 10 to the -10th power %) of determining impurities by means of neutron activation encounters considerable difficulties in evaluating the sensitivity and accuracy of the analytical method employed. The authors therefore simulated the process of radioactivation analysis of high-purity substances. In their statistical treatment of the problem, the authors make use of the fact that the relative error of reproducibility of the analysis is independent of the purity of the sample and of the kind of element being determined. A physical model of radioactivation analysis was obtained for materials of high purity such as silicon, quartz glass, water, carbon, sulfur, etc., weakly activated by neutrons or producing mainly isotopes of gamma emitters after irradiation. Results of a study of direct gamma-spectroscopic activation analysis of high-purity silicon by means of the method of models are given.

Download or read book Strategy and Methodology for Radioactive Waste Characterization written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by IAEA. This book was released on 2007 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade significant progress has been achieved in the development of waste characterization and control procedures and equipment as a direct response to ever-increasing requirements for quality and reliability of information on waste characteristics. Failure in control procedures at any step can have important, adverse consequences and may result in producing waste packages which are not compliant with the waste acceptance criteria for disposal, thereby adversely impacting the repository. The information and guidance included in this publication corresponds to recent achievements and reflects the optimum approaches, thereby reducing the potential for error and enhancing the quality of the end product. -- Publisher's description.
Download or read book Analysis of Cancer Risks in Populations Near Nuclear Facilities written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-06-29 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1980s, the National Cancer Institute initiated an investigation of cancer risks in populations near 52 commercial nuclear power plants and 10 Department of Energy nuclear facilities (including research and nuclear weapons production facilities and one reprocessing plant) in the United States. The results of the NCI investigation were used a primary resource for communicating with the public about the cancer risks near the nuclear facilities. However, this study is now over 20 years old. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission requested that the National Academy of Sciences provide an updated assessment of cancer risks in populations near USNRC-licensed nuclear facilities that utilize or process uranium for the production of electricity. Analysis of Cancer Risks in Populations near Nuclear Facilities: Phase 1 focuses on identifying scientifically sound approaches for carrying out an assessment of cancer risks associated with living near a nuclear facility, judgments about the strengths and weaknesses of various statistical power, ability to assess potential confounding factors, possible biases, and required effort. The results from this Phase 1 study will be used to inform the design of cancer risk assessment, which will be carried out in Phase 2. This report is beneficial for the general public, communities near nuclear facilities, stakeholders, healthcare providers, policy makers, state and local officials, community leaders, and the media.
