Title: Determination of ring correction factors for leaded gloves used in grab sampling activities at Hanford tank farms

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/782439· OSTI ID:782439

This study evaluates the effectiveness of lead lined gloves in reducing extremity dose from two sources specific to tank waste sampling activities: (1) sludge inside glass sample jars and (2) sludge as thin layer contamination on the exterior surface of sample jars. The response of past and present Hanford Extremity Dosimeters (ring) designs under these conditions is also evaluated.
