Radiation Characterization Summary: NETL Beam Port 1/5 Free-Field Environment at the 128-inch Core Centerline Adjacent (NETL-FF-BP1/5-128-cca)

Redhouse, Danielle R.

This document presents the facility - recommended characterization of the neutron, prompt gamma ray, and delayed gamma ray radiation fields in the University of Texas at Austin Nuclear Engineering Teaching Laboratory (NETL) TRIGA reactor for the beam port 1/5 free - field environment at the 12 8 - inch location adjacent to the core centerline. The designation for this environment is NETL - FF - BP1/5 - 12 8 - cca. The neutron, prompt gamma ray, and delayed gamma ray energy spectra, uncertainties, and covariance matrices are presented as well as radi al and axial neutron and gamma ray fluence profiles within the experiment area of the cavity. Recommended constants are given to facilitate the conversion of various dosimetry readings into radiation metrics desired by experimenters. Representative pulse o perations are presented with conversion examples. _______________________________ 1 Sandia National Laboratories is a multimission laboratory managed and operated by National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell International Inc., for the U.S. Department of Energy?s National Nuclear Security Admini stration under contract DE - NA0003 525 2 R &D Scientist and Engineer, Radiation Modeling and Metrology , Sandia National Laboratories, P.O.

Radiation Characterization Summary: WSMR Fast Burst Reactor Environment at the 6-Inch and 24-Inch Irradiation Locations

Redhouse, Danielle R.

This document presents the facility-recommended characterization of the neutron, prompt gamma-ray, and delayed gamma-ray radiation fields for the White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) Fast Burst Reactor, also known as molybdenum-alloy Godiva (Molly-G), at the 6-inch and the 24-inch irradiation locations. The neutron, prompt gamma-ray, and delayed gamma-ray energy spectra, uncertainties, and covariance matrices are presented. Code dependent recommended constants are given to facilitate the conversion of various dosimetry readings into radiation metrics desired by experimenters. Representative pulse operations are presented with conversion examples.
