Director ABSTRACT This report summarizes research projects, measurement method develop- ment, testing and data evaluation activities, carried out during Fiscal Year 1983 in the NBS Center for Radiation Research. These activities fall in the areas of radiation measurements, atomic and plasma radiation, nuclear radiation, radiation physics, radiometric physics, and radiation sources and instrumentation. Key Words: Atomic radiation; nuclear radiation; plasma radiation; radiation instrumentation; radiation measurements; radiation physics; radiation sources; radiometric physics. i INTRODUCTION This report is a summary of the technical activities of the NBS Center for Radiation Research (CRR) for the period October 1, 1982 to September 30, 1983. The Center is one of five Centers in the National Measurement Laboratory. The Center for Radiation Research develops and maintains the scientific competences and experimental facilities necessary to provide the Nation with a central basis for uniform physical measurements, measurement methodology, and measurement services in the areas of near infra-red radiation (visible) optical radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and ionizing radiation (x-ray, gamma rays, electrons, neutrons, radioactivity, etc.); provides government, industry, and the academic community with essential calibrations for field radiation measurements needed in such applied areas as nuclear power, lighting, solar measurements, aerospace, defense, color and appearance, health care, radiation processing, advanced laser development, and radiation protection for public safety; carries out research in order to develop improved radiation standards, new radiation measurement technology, and improved understanding of atomic, molecular, and nuclear radiation processes, and elucidate the interaction of radiation and particles (electrons, neutrons, and ions) with matter; collects, compiles, critically evaluates, and supplements the existing atomic, molecular, and nuclear data base in order to meet the major demands of the Nation for such data; participates in collaborative efforts with other NBS centers in the interdiscipl inary applications of radiation. The summary of activities is organized in six parts, one for the Office of Radiation Measurement, and one for each of the five Divisions in the Center: Atomic and Plasma Radiation, Nuclear Radiation, Radiation Physics, Radiometric Physics, and Radiation Sources and Instrumentation. Each Division tells its own story in its own way. In general there is an introduction followed by a series of short reports on current activities, publications during the year, talks given, committee participation, and professional interactions. A detailed table of contents has been provided to permit the reader to find those activities of greatest interest. To obtain more information about particular work, the reader should address the individual scientists or their division, c/o Center for Radiation Research, Radiation Physics Building, C229, National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D.C. 20234.

The Office assists the technical organi- zational components of CRR in monitoring the radiation measurement needs of these national user groups, and in activities undertaken to meet national needs. The latter include methods for improving the consistency of field measurements with the national physical measurement standards. The Office maintains liaison with organizations that conduct measurement- intensive programs in the areas of radiation safety, energy, health, and environmental contamination. Examples are the Nuclear Regulatory Commis- sion, Department of Energy, Food and Drug Administration, Environmental Protection Agency, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the Conference of Radiation Control Program Directors. The Office partici- pates in collaborative programs with most of these organizations to satisfy specific measurement traceability and quality assurance require- ments. Another function of the Office is to provide the secretariat and chairman for American National Standards Committee N43, concerned with equipment for non-medical applications of ionizing radiation. Radon The need for transfer standards for several different types of radon measurements, as well as other support services, continues to be expressed by state radiation control laboratories and other user groups. Based on the technical analysis and the study of user needs and NBS capabilities performed last year, more efforts have been directed toward developing the necessary transfer standards, and toward establishing

  • The Suitability of Smartphone Camera Sensors for Detecting Radiation Yehia H
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The suitability of smartphone camera sensors for detecting radiation Yehia H. Johary1,2, Jamie Trapp2, Ali Aamry3, Hussin Aamri4, N. Tamam5 & A. Sulieman6* The advanced image sensors installed on now-ubiquitous smartphones can be used to detect ionising radiation in addition to visible light. Radiation incidents on a smartphone camera’s Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) sensor creates a signal which can be isolated from a visible light signal to turn the smartphone into a radiation detector. This work aims to report a detailed investigation of a well-reviewed smartphone application for radiation dosimetry that is available for popular smartphone devices under a calibration protocol that is typically used for the commercial calibration of radiation detectors. The iPhone 6s smartphone, which has a CMOS camera sensor, was used in this study. Black tape was utilized to block visible light. The Radioactivity counter app developed by Rolf-Dieter Klein and available on Apple’s App Store was installed on the device and tested using a calibrated radioactive source, calibration concrete pads with a range of known concentrations of radioactive elements, and in direct sunlight. The smartphone CMOS sensor is sensitive to radiation doses as low as 10 µGy/h, with a linear dose response and an angular dependence. The RadioactivityCounter app is limited in that it requires 4–10 min to ofer a stable measurement. The precision of the measurement is also afected by heat and a smartphone’s battery level. Although the smartphone is not as accurate as a conventional detector, it is useful enough to detect radiation before the radiation reaches hazardous levels.

Usually the concern is man's destruction or alteration of the perceived natural environment. More often than not there is little understanding that the earth's natural environment is largely determined by the underlying geology, and its derivatives, modified by the local biosphere and climatic conditions.

  • DIRSIG Water Manual (Version 1.0)
    DIRSIG Water Manual (version 1.0) The content contained in this manual has been pulled primarily from chapters of a dissertation (Goodenough 2007), though some limited content from a validation document (Mobley, et al 1993) is included for reference. A recent conference paper demonstrating on-going validation is also included (Speir 2010). Most of the input syntax relevant to users is presented in the third section (“Chapter 5”). The first two sections provide background information on the radiometry and techniques used for the in- water solutions. A section including limited verification/validation is included in the fourth section and additional information is attached covering the original canonical problem set and a brief introduction to additional validation work. Finally, a list of possibly useful references is provided at the end.
