Neutron Dose Assesment

 

This is related to a comprehensive dose assessment that includes internal and external sources of radiation for former workers involved in weapons production at the Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site. It is supported by the Department of Energy. Specifically we are modeling the uncertainty involved in assigning neutron doses to individuals when historical records are incomplete. One method to do this will be to use results from personal gamma dosimeters and neutron to gamma ratios.

Determinations of Neutron to Gamma ratios made in plutonium areas at Rocky Flats and fits to this distribution using a Log-Normal distribution.
