The Safe Handling of Radioactive-pyrophoric Materials


Book Description

Most metallurgical operations can be applied to the intensely radioactive metals provided the metallurgist is cognizant of the properties of these metals and the health hazards associated with them. This paper is concerned with means of safely handling large amounts of high intensity alpha emitters which may also be pyrophoric and/or gamma active.




Hot Laboratories


Book Description

This search, containing 126 references, was prepared to serve as a guide to the report literature on the design and construction of hot laboratories. These reports are listed alpha-numerically. Articles selected from scientific journals and which appear in the 1951 thru 1959 issues of Nuclear Science Abstracts (NSA) are included. These articles are listed under Published References according to NSA reference number, and therefore chronologically.
