New Spherical Gamma-Ray and Neutron Emitting Sources for Testing of Radiation Detection Instruments

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed new gamma-ray and neutron emitting sources for testing radiation detection systems. These radioactive sources were developed for testing of detection systems in maritime applications. This required special source characteristics...
