The fission product and encapsulation plant (FPCE) to be built by Isochem, Inc.y in Washington state will produce fully encapsulated fission products for the commercial market. Among these, all of which are extractable from Hanford s plutonium process residues, is cesium-137, a 600-kv. gamma emitter of interest to the process irradiation industry. Isochem will offer cesium in large production quantities and low cost to irradiators of foods, woods, chemicals, etc. Its 30-year half-life promises economies in source array replenishment to compensate for decay. Cesium thus becomes an economic contender for current and planned irradiation applications. 

The differences in actinide element concentrations in the second vessel outlet samples for experiments with and without the presence of a gamma field (experiment 3 vs. experiments 1 and 2) are clearly evident from the data of Table VI. These differences are probably related to differing leaching characteristics of the waste with and without gamma radiation. Such effects have been reported by others (14, 15). We are planning experiments to verify and to further study this result. 

Figure 5.3. Left. The gamma-ray emission from XX annihilation in a rich, Coma-like, nearby galaxy cluster is shown Mx = 70 — 500 GeV (from top down). The integral flux is compared to the sensitivity of ongoing and planned gamma-ray experiments, as labelled. Right. The diffuse synchrotron emission spectrum of secondary electrons produced in XX annihilation is shown to fit the Coma radio-halo spectrum the green area represent the prediction of a model in which the x annihilates predominantly into fermions, while the blue area represent the gauge-boson dominated x annihilation (from Colafrancesco Mele 2001).

Presented here is evidence for the first detection of TeV emission from the galactic plan and two previously unknown sources of TeV gamma rays, one coincident with 3EG J0520+2556, and another coincident with the Cygnus Arm. The new sources are found to be diffuse. The two source candidates have probabilities of 5.9a and 5.5a respectively. When all the trials of the all-sky search with a range of 20 bin sizes are counted the probabilities of ob-... 

You have an alpha source, a beta source, and a gamma source. Design a plan to use a Geiger counter, paper, and foil to determine the identity of each source.

Interpretation of gamma scans may at times be difficult and requires good knowledge of both scanning technology and column operation. For best results, it is important to have a person or persons capable of interpreting the scans on the spot, so that one can plan the next move then. 

Analysis is planned for the radionuclides that are expected from the object of monitoring, with emphasis on radionuclides for which relatively large amounts are estimated to occur, be released, and reach the sample. Under some circumstances, radionuclides that are measured most readily or most sensitively may be used as tracers for accompanying radionuclides. Gamma-ray spectral and gross activity analyses are useful for testing predictions of radionuclide amounts, releases, and transfers, and also to seek unexpected radionuclides. 

In the future, RMC-instruments may find applications as low cost, wide-field monitors for spin stabilized microsatellites. The alternative techniques requires three-axis stabilized platforms to perform well, and much higher data rates as well. The WATCH experience have shown, that the performance of an RMC is adequate for providing the first alert for, and the initial positions of, transient sources like X-ray novae. Plans are also underway in several laboratories to establish ground-based optical telescopes with possibility for rapid follow up of satellite gamma-burst localizations. A spaceborne RMC detector would complement such concepts very weU.

ABSTRACT A system is subjected to difierent cracks. A crack can be only detected when its length exceeds a fixed minimum value. The length of the crack is modeled using a gamma process. When the length of the crack reaches a certain level or when the munber of cracks detected in the system attains a fixed value, the system fails and needs to be replaced immediately. A preventive maintenance is carried out when the age of the system exceeds a value T. A corrective maintenance is performed when the system fads. Under a corrective maintenance and imder a preventive maintenance, the system is replaced by a new one. Costs are associated with the corrective maintenance and with the preventive maintenance. The problem is to determine an optimal planned replacement time T, minimizing the average cost rate of the system.
