Measurements and standards for nuclear materials safeguards, May 1, 1978--September 1, 1978
This report is a review of the period, May 1, 1978 through September 30, 1978, of a long-term NBS program sponsored by NRC to upgrade national measurements and standards capability for nuclear materials safeguards. The overall approach that NBS is utilizing to provide for development and dissemination of a consistent set of national measurement standards for nuclear materials safeguards is presented. It should be stressed that a great deal of work needs to be done to provide the standardization base for alternate fuel cycles. Many materials such as thorium, Uranium 233, and plutonium or mixed oxides spiked with fission products might well be found in future alternate fuel cycles. The NBS program is aimed at providing both the standards for today's needs and the standards for future fuel cycles. A summary of the progress for each of the five tasks in the project is given.
