Guidelines for the Determination of Standardized Semiconductor Radiation Hardness Parameters
AvIAEA,International Atomic Energy Agency
Häftad, Engelska, 2023
568 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The operational useful lifetime of semiconductor electronic devices working in harsh radiation environments is limited by the structural defects induced by the exposure to ionizing radiation. This has immediate consequences for their use in high radiation environments, for example in nuclear facilities, satellites, radiotherapy, medical diagnostics, security and other industries. This publication establishes a standardized procedure to quantify the radiation hardness of semiconductor diode materials in a way that is independent of the irradiation parameters and biasing conditions of the device. The established parameter reflects the additional free charge carrier trapping cross section induced by the damaging radiation, normalized to the predicted concentration of generated vacancies by the same radiation. The effectiveness of the approach is validated through different types of ion beam irradiations, characterizations and materials used. The work leads towards approaches to predict the radiation induced effects on device performance for more complex electronic structures.

Many institutions have invested significant resources in developing modern open source software for analysing nuclear reactors. Recognizing this trend, the IAEA has taken the initiative to streamline and support the Open-Source Nuclear Codes for Reactor Analysis (ONCORE) initiative. Within the framework of ONCORE, the IAEA organized a technical meeting, titled ""Development and Application of Open-source Modelling and Simulation Tools for Nuclear Reactors"", in 2022 in Milan, Italy. This publication serves as a comprehensive review of the current state of the field, featuring insights from experts, experiences and the latest innovations and technological challenges in open source software and open access data. It also highlights ongoing collaborations supporting research and development, as well as education and training in nuclear science and technology, drawing from the papers presented at the ONCORE meeting.
Dosimetry of Small Static Fields Used in External Beam Radiotherapy
An International Code of Practice for Reference and Relative Dose Determination
AvIAEA,International Atomic Energy Agency
Häftad, Engelska, 2018
650 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This is the first international code of practice dedicated to the dosimetry of small static fields used in radiotherapy. It provides consistent reference dosimetry, traceable to metrological primary standards, and enables common procedures within a country to be followed for small field dosimetry. The publication presents an overview of the physics, followed by a general formalism for reference dosimetry in small fields. Guidelines for its practical implementation using suitable detectors and methods for the determination of field output factors are given for specific clinical machines that use small static fields. The development of this code of practice has been done through an international working group, established jointly with the American Association of Physicists in Medicine. Internationally harmonized guidelines in this field will ensure worldwide consistency in dose delivery to radiotherapy patients and will contribute to dose standardization in international clinical trial studies, comparing outcomes of various radiotherapy treatment modalities using small fields.

This publication provides guidance on facilitating decommissioning during the design, construction and operation stages of a research reactor's lifetime, and on managing objectives and requirements during the transition period. It presents good practices and lessons learned in the planning and preparation for decommissioning, as well as information relating to regulatory and management aspects. The publication is intended for individuals and organizations responsible for the design and operation of research reactors, as well as regulatory bodies, technical support organizations and decommissioning planners.
Notification, Authorization, Inspection and Enforcement for the Safety and Security of Radiation Sources
AvIAEA
Häftad, Engelska, 2023
883 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This publication has been developed to assist IAEA Member States in establishing and maintaining regulatory control through notification, authorization, inspection and enforcement in relation to facilities and activities with radiation sources, in order to achieve the fundamental safety and security objectives. The publication addresses the implementation of the requirements for safety and security in a harmonized way, taking into account differences in the requirements as well as differences in States' regulatory infrastructures. For example, in some States the same regulatory body is responsible for the control of safety and security, while in others, safety and security are controlled by separate regulatory bodies. A harmonized approach for notification, authorization, inspection and enforcement is intended to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of regulatory control through concurrent inspection for safety and security.

Technical Aspects Related to the Design and Construction of Engineered Containment Barriers for Environmental Remediation
AvIAEA,International Atomic Energy Agency
Häftad, Engelska, 2024
746 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Containment barrier systems are among the most widely used technologies for remediating contaminated sites. Various structures have been engineered to address site-specific needs, while barrier selection depends largely on whether regulatory requirements are prescriptive, or performance based. This publication provides an introduction to the design and construction of different containment barriers for low-level radioactive waste generated from remediation activities: basal (bottom) liners, final covers, in situ vertical barriers and in situ permeable reactive barriers. Practical aspects of each structure are discussed in theoretical case studies, which allow remediation project designers, implementers and regulators to make more informed decisions about the use of these barriers.
