Reactor dosimetry. ASTM STP 1228

Abstract

Important advances have been made over the past three decades in neutron and gamma physics and dosimetry. Most of this has been done in support of reactor development programs and the enhanced understanding of radiation damage to reactor fuels, materials, and components. The eighth symposium provided an update of the field of reactor dosimetry. Experts were specifically invited to discuss their latest results under the broad theme of dosimetry for the correlation of radiation effects. This volume has been divided into the following sections: pressure vessel surveillance dosimetry; neutron dosimetry techniques--passive; neutron dosimetry techniques--active; benchmarks; gamma-ray dosimetry techniques; radiation field characterization; nuclear data; and high energy neutron dosimetry. Separate abstracts were prepared for 75 papers in this book.
