Instructions for the Irradiation of Shear Pins for the 76 mm Primer.

Abstract

A procedure is given for irradiating shear pins used in the primer for 76 mm ammunition to produce the required amount of 22Na activity in each pin. A method for monitoring the irradiation process is provided together with procedures to provide an absolute measurement of the amount of 22Na produced in each pin. (Author)
