Abstract
Presents the most up to date research available from the world's leading experts in neutron and gammaray physics and dosimetry. This state-of-the-art review features over 85 peer-reviewed papers on such wide-ranging subjects as: Pressure Vessel Surveillance Dosimetry -- 17 papers, including review papers on the current status of surveillance standards, several papers on the status of surveillance programs in central and eastern European countries, and a number of papers on handling uncertainties in surveillance data. Passive and Active Neutron Dosimetry Techniques -- two sections containing papers that describe some of the newest techniques in neutron metrology. Benchmarks -- includes papers describing the analysis of benchmark neutron environments for verification and validation of measurement and calculational results. Gamma-Ray Dosimetry Techniques -- 5 papers describing some of the latest techniques for determining gamma-ray fluences in reactor environments. Radiation Damage Evaluation and Measurements-- contains papers correlating various aspects of radiation damage with fluence. Radiation Field Characterization -- 8 papers describe analyses in a wide variety of neutron environments, ranging from neutron fields in light-water moderated research reactors to photoneutron fields produced by an electron accelerator. Nuclear Data -- papers on evaluations of specific cross sections important for dosimetry applications, as well as evaluation and testing of updated dosimetry cross-section libraries. In addition, this section includes 2 papers on the evaluation and testing of the most recent multigroup cross-section libraries used for neutron and gamma-ray transport calculations. High-Energy Neutron Dosimetry -- 5 papers that support research in fusion energy. Three keynote presentations and summaries of nine workshop meetings are also included in this comprehensive edition.
