Description

Recently the release of sup(14)C from different sources gained increasing interest as this radionuclide with its long half life contributes significantly to the collective dose commitment. Measurement of the release rate of sup(14)C as COsub(2) were carried out from 1979 to 1984 at the Vienna TRIGA reactor. These results show large differences. Due to the large number of available data a statistical evaluation seemed promising. This evaluation showed that the releases fit quite well to a normal distribution, indicating that the release of sup(14)C as COsub(2) from a TRIGA reactor is a random process. (author)
