Radiation Safety Assessment of the New Neutron Radiography System at Tehran Research Reactor

Recently, a new Neutron Radiography (NR) beam line has been designed, constricted, installed and tested based on the use of E-beam tube of Tehran Research Reactor (TRR). Initial tests have been shown that the system can be used for different samples and purposes such as nuclear plates and rods fuels.  For this end the system need a suitable irradiation room which should be installed at the NR b...
