Segmented Gamma Scanner for Radioactive Waste Assessment: A User Guide

Research output: Book/ReportCommissioned report

Abstract

Radioactive waste assessment is important for ensuring nuclear material security at various types of facilities, such as enrichment, fuel fabrication, and reprocessing plants. The waste generated at such nuclear facilities is stored in standard containers and is required to be characterized for material-accounting purposes. The segmented gamma scanner system is a popular, nondestructive analysis measurement system used for characterizing nuclear material, including radioactive waste. This document provides guidance on how to achieve effective performance from a segmented gamma scanner system for accurately quantifying fission products, activation products, and transuranic wastes.
