United States Navy nuclear accident dosimetry program: History and Current Status

Federal Regulations of the United States require that installations possessing sufficient quantities of fissile material to potentially constitute a critical mass, such that the excessive exposure of individuals to radiation from a nuclear accident is possible, shall provide appropriate nuclear accident dosimetry. The American National Standard ANSl/HPS N13.3–2013 Dosimetry for Criticality Accidents provides technical, quality assurance, and performance requirements for nuclear accident dosimeters (NAD). In 2023 the U.S. Navy operated 82 nuclear-powered ships, with the fleet being composed of 11 aircraft carriers, 68 submarines, having a total number of 98 reactors. Since 1968 the U.S. Navy has used fixed nuclear accident dosimeters (FNAD) mounted to the bulkheads surrounding naval nuclear propulsion reactors. Since 1968 the US Navy has used two nuclear accident criticality dosimeters. The first Navy accident dosimeter DT-518/PD was introduced in 1968. It was developed by the Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory in San Francisco, California under leadership of Eugene Tochilin. This dosimeter contains two indium foils for quick dose assessments using shipboard gamma instruments available on nuclear powered vessels and two sulfur pellets/LiF TLD-700 powder for final dose determination at the Naval Dosimetry Center. The newest Navy NAD is the DT-723/PD, which contains indium foil, gold foil, cadmium shielded gold foil, sulfur pellet and a LiF TLD-700 chip. This paper provides a brief description of the measurement procedures, results of the testing of both NADs and comparison of their performance.

Peter C. Nowell (1928–2016)

The pioneering cancer cytogeneticist, Peter C. Nowell, died on December 26, 2016, from complications of Alzheimer’s disease at the age of 88. His work laid the foundation for the recognition of the genetic basis of cancer that paved the way for modern targeted cancer therapeutics. Nowell’s observations of changes in chromosomal anatomy during progression of malignancies led him to predict that it was the accumulation of genetic abnormalities that underlies cancer progression, predating notions such as genomic instability as a fundamental hallmark of cancer. Portrait of Peter C. Nowell. Image courtesy of the University of Pennsylvania Art Collection. Nowell was born on February 8, 1928, in Philadelphia. He attended Wesleyan University as an undergraduate and medical school at the University of Pennsylvania, graduating in 1952. He then performed a rotating internship at Philadelphia General Hospital and trained in pathology at Philadelphia’s Presbyterian Hospital. Nowell was drafted into the military and spent 2 years studying the health effects of radiation at the Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory in San Francisco, before joining the faculty at the University of Pennsylvania in 1956, where he stayed for the remainder of his career. As a pathologist, Nowell’s primary tool for discovery was the light microscope. He contributed to development of methods for visualizing chromosomes in mitotic cells (karyotyping). In 1960, using his improved karyotyping methods, Nowell and his associate David Hungerford published their discovery of the first nonrandom chromosomal alteration in cancer: an abnormally small chromosome #22 that was present in all blood or marrow samples from patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) (1). In the seminal paper describing this finding, Nowell wrote that … [↵][1]1To whom correspondence should be addressed. Email: drukerb{at}ohsu.edu. [1]: #xref-corresp-1-1

Urinary excretion of radionuclides from Marshallese exposed to fallout from the 1954 Bravo nuclear test.

Soon after the Bravo nuclear test at Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands on 1 March 1954, urine samples were collected for analysis of excreted radioactivity from native residents exposed to radioactive fallout on two atolls as well as from U.S. military personnel on a third atoll. The earliest acquired samples, obtained by the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL), were assayed for various radionuclides and provided the first known measurements of (131)I in urine following exposure to fallout from a nuclear test. Over the course of 1954, many additional samples were collected by the LASL, as well as by the Atomic Energy Commission New York Operations Office's Health and Safety Laboratory and the Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory. Collectively, the groups sampled included Marshallese exposed on Rongelap and Ailinginae Atolls, American military weather observers temporarily resident on Rongerik Atoll, and sailors from the Japanese fishing vessel, the Lucky Dragon. While the bioassay measurement data and individual urine volumes have been crucial to various attempts to assess intakes of radioactivity and the related internal radiation doses among the Marshallese, those data have never been published in any peer-reviewed journal, but have been restricted to agency memoranda, laboratory reports, and summaries in some publications and book chapters. Reconstructions of internal doses to Marshallese in 1954 and in later years have depended on these data and, hence, they have considerable historical importance as well as importance to ongoing health risk projections for Marshallese. This paper presents much of the original data on urine volumes and radioactivity from the various assays of urine for radionuclides, and compares estimates of (131)I intakes made in 1954, 1985, 1987, and 2008.

Recovery of Gamma Dose Military Specification Failures during Low and High Power Life Testing of Silicon Transistors

A statistical investigation was conducted to determine recovery of and long term reliability of silicon transistors degraded by total gamma dose. This work was sponsored by the U. S. Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory under contract N0022867-C-0292. This program was performed in three phases. Phase I. Over 1,400 transistors were electrically "burned-in" prior to irradiation to secure Joint Army and Navy TX (text extra) devices per MIL-S-19500 for control and test groups. Culling of devices was performed on the basis of PDS (parameter drift screening) and mil. spec. parameter limits. Parameters measured included common emitter current gains, hFE; breakdown and saturation voltages; and leakage currents, ICBO and IEBO. Control and test groups were maintained under electrical operation before, during, and for a total of 1,000 hours following exposure without disconnecting the biasing. Serious degradation of current gain was observed during irradiation. Following exposure, partial recovery of both current gain degradation and leakage current increases were monitored while the transistors remained under continuous operation. Phase II. After 1,000 hours of post exposure continuous operation the transistors were disconnected periodically for the monitoring of transistor parameters during an additional 2,700 hours of low power lifetesting. Although significant recovery was observed during the 1,000 hours of Phase I continuous operation, only slight recovery was noted in the remaining Phase II 2,700 hours of testing. Phase III. Following the low power lifetesting transistors were then subjected to electrical stressing at various biasing levels at, below, and above maximum rated power.

Control of Trim Coil Currents by Rheostat Bridges with Efficiencies above 80%

The 40 trim coil circuits of the 70-inch cyclotron being installed at the Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory are to be powered by a remote power supply which energizes 40 series-connected rheostat bridge circuits located on the cyclotron proper. The rheostat bridges will have a maximum power efficiency in excess of 80%.

Beam Pulse Selector for a Sector Focused Cyclotron

For the U. S. Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory's (NRDL) 70-inch sector-focused cyclotron a beam-pulse selector system has been developed by means of which an individual beam pulse or can be selected near the center of the machine and then accelerated to full energy and extraction. The beam is normally deflected axially into a beam stopper by a negative dc voltage of 10.5 kV applied to the deflector plates via a helically wound coaxial line of 2000 ohms characteristic impedance. An individual fish is transmitted by applying a 5.5 kV positive pulse of less than 40 nsec duration at the input of the coaxial line.

Use of an Isochronous Cyclotron for Neutron Tie-of-Flight Experimentation

The design of the U. S. Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory's (USNRDL) cyclotron for the production of subnanosecond, high intensity, charged particle beam pulses for neutron time-of-flight experiments, is described. Klystron bunching of the extracted cyclotron beam is possible for short bunching path lengths between cyclotron and target but it demands a beam of large energy spread -- greater than 1%. A method of linearizing the effect of the sinusoidally varying, accelerating potential is described, and it is shown that klystron beam bunching is possible with reduced beam energy spread. It is seen that the cyclotron competes with single stage, dc accelerators for neutron time-of-flight experimentation and will furnish large beam currents at higher energies in excess of the beam currents contemplated for the dc tandem machines.

Effects of Simulated Transit Radiation on Digital Circuits

This paper describes results of tests made to determine the performance of digital computer circuits in a transit radiation environment. These tests were sponsored by the Bureau of Ships under direct cognizance of the Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory as part of a study of nuclear radiation effects on shipboard electronic equipment. The transit radiation is emitted by airborne weapon fission products after the fireball and cloud column have dispersed. The transit radiation was simulated by use of cobalt-60 gamma radiation to a maximum dose rate of 3 × 105 roentgens/ hour and to a maximum dose of 1.5 x 104 roentgens. The circuits tested consisted of conventional transistor digital circuitry with 11 to 32 components mounted on each printed wire card. A total of 72 cards of twelve types were actively tested using the manufacturer's acceptance specifications as a basis for determining proper performance. Circuit performance was recorded by photographing the oscilloscope display of circuitwaveforms at regular intervals during a test. As a result of the radiation measurable changes occurred in the output waveforms of some of the circuits, but in no instance did the circuit performance become unacceptable because of the radiation.

A Note on Fallout Prediction

This paper outlines a study made to determine the requirements of the Army in the field for fallout prediction. A series of operations analyses that depict graphically the fallout event for various yields and wind fields as it develops on tactically deployed Army forces have been performed to (1) confirm countermeasures that minimize the influence of fallout on tactical operations, (2) indicate the predicted information required by tactical commanders to allow effective application of these countermeasures, and (3) determine the accuracy requirements associated with this predicted information. The principal analysis tools used are overlay representations of tactically deployed Army forces, and template representations of the U.S. Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory's Dynamic Fallout Model. The results of application of countermeasures to fallout by tactical commanders have been determined and compared for two conditions (1) No Predicted Information (knowledge only of time and location of burst, and readings from radiac instruments) and (2) Perfect Predicted Information (knowledge of the predicted development of the fallout field in time and space as derived from the USNRDL D-Model). From this comparison, areas are identified where prediction offers a distinct advantage to the tactical commander, the most important elements of the predicted information are deduced, and then prediction accuracy requirements are defined. Finally, an operationally useful prediction concept is suggested.
