The Plutonium Facility, TA-55, at Los Alamos National Laboratory is currently producing NDA calibration standards used by various laboratories in the DOE complex. These NIST traceable standards have been produced to calibrate NDA instruments for accountability measurements used for resolving...

Two Canberra-built passive-active {sup 252}Cf shufflers of Los Alamos hardware and software design have been installed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, one at the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research (CMR) Facility at TA-3 and the other at the Plutonium Facility (PF-4) at TA-55. These instruments...

The two new shufflers at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) have been used on uranium inventory items that could not be previously verified or confirmed because of the lack of a suitable assay instrument. A third shufflers at the Westinghouse Savannah River Site (SRS) is currently measuring...

The segmented gamma scanner has become an important instrument for assaying the special nuclear material content of low-density scrap and waste in 55-gal. drums. To perform these assays accurately, we need appropriate standards to calibrate the response of the system including the detector...
