This type of reactor is capable of producing plutonium, produce as much if not more fissionable material as they consume
what is a breeder reactor
This a term used to describe when nuclides undergo fission without initial neutron absorption
what is spontaneous Fission
this type of fission weapon has two or more pieces of fissionable material that are brought together very rapidly, little boy was a type of this
what is a Gun assembly
(Honeycutt can not Answer)This is a type of air filter system for the detection of particals emitted from a NUDET, 4 letter abriviation
What is a AGFU, Advanced grounf filter unit
Used to measure radiation with a chamber filled with gas which is ionized when radiation enters
This type of reactor is used in the UK, uses Gas as a coolant, can refuel while running, and uses nitrogen to shut off, it is abbreviated to three letters
what is an AGR, Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (GCR)
This is the type of uranium isotope is used in nuclear reactors
What is uranium 235
This type of weapon uses fission to initiate fusion, often called an h-bomb and big boom fr
What is a thermonuclear Weapon
This is something you might wear working around radioactive material which can track radition you are exposed to, 3 letter acronym
What is a TLD, Thermo-luminescent dosiemeter
Abbreviated RBE, this is more specific measure of radiations effect on biological stuff which takes into account the extents which different types of radiation have on the body
Relative Biological Effectiveness
This this type of reactor is gas cooled, uses natural uranium, and uses graphite as a moderator, also sounds like a funny word fr
What is a Magnox Reactor
The respective charge of beta minus and beta positive particals
what is -1 and +1
this is a Feature of high altitude of NUDETs and produces an ionization area around the detonation
What is an emp
Material science is all about the properties of materials probably, what are the 4 types of materials
what are Metals, Polymers, Semiconductors (which we dont care about) and Ceramics
This is defined as the energy delivered to the tissue per unit mass, a joule per kilogram is called a Gray, which is 10 rads
What is an Absorbed dose
This type of reactor is a graphite-moderated nuclear power reactor designed and built by the Soviet Union and its 4 letter acronym doesn't make sense in english
This is used to slow down fast neutrons and prevent them from leaving the reactor core, typically water, after being slowed these neutrons are referred to as Thermal neutron and better interact with matter
What is a Moderator
what type of fission weapon is when a fissionable material is strongly compressed, a fat man was this type
what is an Implosion weapon
This is a tool which passes electrons through stuff to see real small
what is an electron microscope
this is the unit of measure for the equivalent dose and equals 10 rems
what is a sievert
This type of reactor uses fast neutrons as opposed slow moving thermal neutrons to sustain a chain fission reaction, it is often abbreviated to 3 letters
What is a FNR, Fast Neutron Reactor
These are three types of common fuels for fusion
what are protium, deuterium and tritium
This term is used to describe any radiation emitted in the first 60 second of a NUDET and mainly consist of gamma rays
What is Initial Nuclear Reaction
The 5 Departments of AFTACs lab
What are operations, Mass Spec, Sample Reciving, Measuerments, Radioactive Chemical deparments
These type of detectors measure energy through methods other than ionization, two types of these are scintillation detectors, which detect based on the flash of light emitted by certain substances, and semiconductor detectors, which like use an electric field ig
What is a solid state Detector
