21. Radiological characterization of very-low-level radioactive waste at CERN

Dr Matteo Magistris (CERN)

23/05/2017, 16:30

The operation of high-energy particle accelerators leads to the unavoidable production of radioactive waste, which must be radiologically characterized to ensure appropriate disposal in the final repositories. This task comprises the establishment of the required list of present radionuclides and a quantitative estimate of their activity. We hereby provide an overview of the methods adopted at...

30. Calculations vs. measurements for SNS spent structures

Mrs Irina Popova (ORNL)

23/05/2017, 16:50

Each spent Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) structure that leaves the SNS site requires supporting documentation with radionuclide inventory and dose rate prediction for the time of the transportation. Analyses are performed, assuming realistic irradiation history and decay case to ensure that the container/package, housing the structure, is compliant with the waste management regulations....

37. Analysis of Residual Activity at the FRIB Linear Accelerator

Dr Mikhail Kostin (Facility for Rare Isotope Beams)

23/05/2017, 17:10

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is an accelerator facility being established at Michigan State University (MSU). The facility will utilize a broad range of primary ion beams from 16-O to 238-U with a beam power of up to 400 kW and energy of 200 MeV/nucleon for 238-U in its baseline configuration to produce rare isotopes. A possible facility upgrade will include an increase of the...
