ASTM E261-16-Reapproved2021

Active Standard: Standard Practice for Determining Neutron Fluence, Fluence Rate, and Spectra by Radioactivation Techniques

ASTM E261

Scope

1.1 This practice describes procedures for the determination of neutron fluence rate, fluence, and energy spectra from the radioactivity that is induced in a detector specimen.

1.2 The practice is directed toward the determination of these quantities in connection with radiation effects on materials.

1.3 For application of these techniques to reactor vessel surveillance, see also Test Methods E1005.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Note 1: Detailed methods for individual detectors are given in the following ASTM test methods: E262, E263, E264, E265, E266, E343, E393, E481, E523, E526, E704, E705, and E854.

1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
