Total Radioisotope Yield Calculator
Abstract
An initial number of fissions on a fissile/fissionable material, defined by ENDF library availability, is used to produce an initial inventory of fission products (FPs). The FPs are decayed using full, analytical solutions to the Bateman equations to calculate the FP inventory at a user-specified time. Output can contain information about activity, mass, dose rate, and gamma-ray intensities based on user-defined parameters, given as .txt or .xlsx file formats. Full execution and display of results takes 5-10 seconds, depending on the complexity of the input parameters.
