Decommissioning Health Physics (eBook, PDF)

A Handbook for MARSSIM Users, Second Edition

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Written by one of the original MARSSIM authors, this second edition incorporates all of the requisite technical aspects of planning and executing radiological surveys in support of decommissioning. It covers survey instrumentation, detection sensitivity, statistics, dose modeling, survey procedures, and release criteria. Along with more case studies and examples, this edition includes new chapters on hot spot assessment and the clearance or release of materials, revises the chapters on statistics and characterization survey design, and updates the regulations and guidance documents.
