Seventy-Five Years of Nuclear Criticality Safety Documents - A Bibliography
- Lawrence Livermore National Lab. (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
A collection of nuclear criticality documents was begun in the 1970s at the University of California’s Lawrence Livermore Laboratory (now Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory). Documents in this bibliography are dated as early as 1940. The early documents described experimental work that was of vital importance to the safe use of fissile materials at nuclear reactors, the facilities for preparing or transporting nuclear fuel, or its eventual storage. The experiments were of direct value to support safe operations with fissile material, but they were also needed for validating early physics data and calculational methods and then for validating computational methods used in criticality safety evaluations. Bibliographic information from the past seventy-five years have been entered into a computerized bibliographic database. The database continues to expand. Publications were issued several decades ago based on the information collected at that time. Our new publication is based on a current “snapshot” of the present status of the database. Contributions of information or corrections to this bibliography will be appreciated.
