Advanced Test Reactor Neutron Dosimetry Report

Results of neutron dosimetry measurements in ATR for cycle 173A-1 are presented. Cobalt and nickel wires were installed in numerous irradiation locations for the duration of the cycle. The specific activity of these wire segments can be used in conjunction with the presented cycle history information to determine the thermal- and fast-neutron fluence rates for each irradiation position during the cycle using the referenced standard test methods.

Gamma-Ray Emitting Radionuclides Concentrations and Decontamination Factors of ATR Loop Liquid Samples Cycle 173A Revision 0

This report contains the gamma-ray emitting radionuclides concentration and decontamination factor results from gamma-ray spectrometry measurements of ATR loop liquid samples by the Radiation Measurements Laboratory (RML) for ATR Cycle 173A running May 3, 2024, to July 6, 2024. This report consists of five subsections, one for each loop. Each subsection contains the results for each sampling of the loop along with the date and time of sampling, spectral data identifications, sample type, and reactor power (MW). The results are reported in units of disintegrations per minute per milliliter of sample. The results are obtained with the gamma-ray spectral data analysis routines of the RML computer. Some of this report is also generated by RML data storage and handling routines.
