Description

Takasaki Advanced Radiation Research Institute, Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), have an electron beam facility employing an industrial-scale electron accelerator with the maximum acceleration voltage of 2 MV, and world-class cobalt 60 gamma ray irradiation facilities consisting of 3 buildings and 8 irradiation rooms which cover 6 decade of dose rate range. These facilities are in operation as a world Center of Excellence, widely for users inside and outside of JAEA to perform research and testing or collaborative work on multipurpose such as material developments, environmental technology, and biotechnology. The present report describes characteristics of irradiation field, auxiliary utilities in irradiation rooms, and basic data for irradiation and dose evaluation of a sample. (author)
