International reactor dosimetry file 2002 (IRDF-2002).

Edición de la obra International Reactor Dosimetry File 2002 (IRDF-2002)

An updated, tested and standardized reactor dosimetry cross-section database with associated uncertainty data and relevant decay data has been assembled to create a new data library for use in assessments of the service life of reactor pressure vessels. The resulting IRDF-2002 data library is available on CD-ROM and through the Internet, and the selection procedure and contents are described in this publication. This set of recommended high-quality data is also appropriate for use in other neutron metrology applications, such as boron neutron capture therapy, therapeutic use of radioisotopes, nuclear physics measurements and reactor safety studies.--Publisher's description.
