Cobalt-60 Irradiator PR398739
Summary
AI-generated · Aug 27, 2025Procurement of a cobalt-60 irradiator with a larger sample chamber to expand the range of materials that can be studied. The unit uses a shielded cobalt-60 gamma-ray source to conduct material irradiation experiments.
During operation, samples are placed in the chamber, sealed, and lowered toward the source for a specified exposure period. The well-characterized gamma source is expected to provide substantial benefits across DOE programs by helping researchers understand how radiation affects material properties and processes.
Cobalt-60 Irradiator The Nuclear Energy and Fuel Cycle Division (NEFCD) is acquiring a new irradiator featuring a larger sample chamber, significantly expanding the types of materials that can be studied. This irradiator uses a shielded cobalt-60 gamma ray source to conduct material irradiation experiments, helping researchers better understand how radiation affects material properties and processes. During operation, samples are placed in the chamber, sealed, and lowered toward the source for a specified exposure period. This well-characterized gamma source provides substantial benefits across various DOE programs.
