摘要
Solid state track recorders (SSTR) were deployed in two high level waste storage tanks and were exposed to a neutron field resulting from an unknown quantity of actinide nuclides producing neutrons via spontaneous fission and (alpha,n) reactions with light nuclei present in the tank. Discrete ordinates transport theory calculations of the tank and its contents were used to infer the amount of radioactive material present.
