Samples are irradiated in cylindrical stainless steel containers in the field specified below for each source. Samples forwarded for irradiation should meet the irradiation field specifications described in Table 1. Processing Specifications, Facility Features and Availability Facility Max. Booking required Maximum continuous booking High temp.
Specifications exist for commonly used parameters.
Where client requires unique parameters, an additional charge for dose mapping facility for this specific purpose will be levied. However, because of the limited number of facilities available for high temperature and dose rate studies, clients are requested to notify as early as possible so that all studies can be accommodated. Support services Several dosimetry systems traceable to the Australian Standard for Absorbed Dose are available for measuring absorbed doses from 40 Gy to 50 kGy. A series of lead shields provide a range of intermediate dose rates. Access to samples under irradiation is possible through access holes in the upper shielding plug.
