Calculator For Radioisotope Yields, Targets, And Products

Abstract

An initial number of atoms in a material (by element or by isotope), defined by ENDF library availability, is used to produce an initial reaction products (RPs). The RPs are decayed using full, analytical solutions to the Bateman equations to calculate the RP inventory at a user-specified time. Since each radioisotope's inventory is known, the proportion to the total may be shown for each isotope. The total dose rate and activity is the main objective for experimenters. Built-in information about many reactors and irradiation positions is available. Full execution and display of results takes 5-10 seconds, depending on the complexity of the input parameters.
