Abstract

Static gamma-ray measurements collected between September 2017 and March 2018 in the vicinity of the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) and the Radiochemical Engineering Development Center (REDC) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory are presented. Temporal events are identified and tracked, including radioactive material transfers, rain events, and 41Ar emissions. The remaining data is used to determine the average background and its variation. These results will be used to benchmark Monte Carlo transport models of the HFIR/REDC vicinity and provide training data for material transfer tracking algorithms and data fusion algorithms to determine HFIR operational status under the Multi-Informatics for Nuclear Operations Scenarios program.
