exposure to radiation poses a risk
Term
What is collective dose
Definition
Total of all dose in a group
Term
Scope of an effective alara
Definition
reduction of internal and external dose
Term
What would be a good pre-job briefing
Definition
How we are going to reduce the expsoure
Term
Fundamental laws for electrical charges
Definition
opposite electrical charges of equal value cancel each other out
-opposite electrial charges atrract each other
- like electrical charges repel each other
Term
Define Current
Definition
Electrical current is the movement, or flow, of electrons past a given point in a circuit. Current is measured in units called amperes
Term
Define Voltage
Definition
Voltage is the electrical potential difference that causes electrons to flow in a circuit. Voltage is measured in units called volts
Term
Define Resistance
Definition
Resistance is the electrical quantity that opposes electron flow in a circuit Reistane is meausred in units called ohms
Term
The unit ohms is used to measure what
Definition
Resistance
Term
The function of a detector in a radiation measurement system is to do what
Definition
gives radiation a place to interact so it can be measured
Term
whats the function of the readout circuity in the system
Definition
measure and analyze the product effect and provides a usable output indication
Term
Scintillation detector is what type of detector
Definition
excitation
Term
What factors affect the collection of ion pairs
Definition
Type, energy, detector size. Etc
Term
Describe how ion chambers work, in reference to the graph
Definition
It works by collecting all the primary ions, 1 to 1 good instrument for dose rate
Term
What is it called when we collect an ion ionization
Definition
Saturation
Term
When you increase the voltage the output does what
Definition
Goes up
Term
Define Dead Time
Definition
The time from the initial measured pulse until another pulse can be measured by the electronics
Term
Define Recovery time
Definition
time from the initial full size pulse to the next full size pulse produced by the detector
Term
Define Resolving time
Definition
the time from the initial full size pulse to the next full size pulse produced by the dectector
Term
Is there gas amplification in ion chambers
Definition
no Gas amplification is when voltage pulse ion pairs fast towards mode and causes secondary radiation
Term
Post job alara reviews
Definition
to see talk about what worked and what we can do better for the next time
