Radiological Sciences Department investigation radiation incident, Class I, No. 299

Fragments of radioactive materials were deposited in the Redox area during August, 1953. By radiation monitoring, the location, physical properties, and dosage were determined. The cause was assumed to be the buildup of ammonium nitrate containing ruthenium on the filters of the Redox stack. The amount of occupational exposure, and the reasons why this incident happened were also discussed.

Use of a Water Boiler Reactor as a Production Test Facility (open access)

Use of a Water Boiler Reactor as a Production Test Facility

The feasibility of the use of a water-boiler type reactor as a production test facility for making reactivity tests on various forms of uranium and uranium compounds was investigated. It is concluded that the reactor should be very useful for production testing of materials with the danger coefficient techniqus. A suggested production procedure is outlined. (auth)
