A Method for the Analysis of Radionuclide Mixture Using a Gamma-Beta Scintillation Spectrometer (open access)

A Method for the Analysis of Radionuclide Mixture Using a Gamma-Beta Scintillation Spectrometer

The following report describes a beta and gamma scintillation detector similar to what was used in previous decay studies, yet was modified to make it suitable for the analysis of mixtures of radio-nuclides.

Heat Transfer Study for Self-Boiling Radioactive Wastes (open access)

Heat Transfer Study for Self-Boiling Radioactive Wastes

The temperature characteristics associated with the handling of self-boiling radioactive wastes from the separations extraction processes in the Chemical Processing Department have necessitated several heat transfer studies. Earlier studies 1,2,3 defined the feasibility of self-concentration in existing waste storage facilities by determining the rate of heat generation from the decay of stored fission products and by defining the rate of heat loss from existing storage tanks to the surrounding soil.
