24th DOE/NRC NUCLEAR AIR CLEANING AND TREATMENT CONFERENCE THE INFLUENCE OF SALT AEROSOL ON ALPHA RADIATION DETECTION BY WIPP CONTINUOUS AIR MONITORS
Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) alpha continuous air monitor (CAM) performance was evaluated to determine if CAMS could detect accidental releases of transuranic radioactivity from the underground repository. Anomalous alpha spectra and poor background subtraction were observed and attributed to salt deposits on the CAM sampling filters. Microscopic examination of salt laden sampling filters...
متن کاملThe Cosmic Ray Muon Flux at WIPP
In this work a measurement of the muon intensity at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) near Carlsbad, NM, USA is presented. WIPP is a salt mine with a depth of 655 m. The vertical muon flux was measured with a two panels scintillator coincidence setup to Φvert = (3.10 +0.05 −0.07) 10 −7 s−1cm−2sr−1.

متن کاملNotes on Wait-Free Spans
0. Introduction A number of key results in the theory of asynchronous, fault-tolerant computation of generalized consensus problems (known as decision tasks) are, at heart, topological. There is a developing body of research in this area that exploits the language and tools of combinatorial and algebraic topology. The seminal papers FLP, BMZ] assume an asynchronous message-passing model and req...
متن کاملUncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis in Performance Assessment for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant
3 S,T I The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is under development by the US. Department of Energy (DOE) for the geologk (deep underground) disposal of transuranic (TRU) waste. This development has been supported by a sequence of performance assessments (PAS) carried out by Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) to assess what is known about the WIPP and to provide ,pidance for future DOE research...
