reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA235334 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The pocket RADIAC PR consists of nuclear sensors in a small, compact, lightweight unit that will detect and measure radiation in terms of initial neutron and gamma radiation total dose from a nuclear detonation, total dose and dose rate from neutron induced gamma radiation at and immediately adjacent to ground zero, and total dose and dose rate gamma radiation resulting from nuclear fallout. The data obtained in both the initial radiation and the fallout will be provided on demand in a digital display. A visual and an optional audible alarm will alert the user at a default dose rate level. This alarm can be reset by the operator.
