AbstractAbstract
[en] The payoff from nuclear power in terms of higher living standards is just beginning to be felt on a world-wide scale at a time when problems of uranium supplies to the fuel cycle, uncertainties about reprocessing spent fuel and recycling plutonium, and a method for permanently disposing of radioactive wastes have not been solved. US non-proliferation policy aimed at deferring and possibly eliminating spent-fuel processing intensifies the waste-management problem as inventories of both civilian and military wastes increase. This policy is judged to be an ill-advised expediency. Radioactive waste management is based on the concept of multiple barriers to separate the waste from man's environment in either permanent or retrievable storage. Disposal schemes include disposal into space, transmutation, continental, and oceanic in a variety of forms. The impact on New Mexico is concentrated on disposal of uranium mill tailings and the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP), which could pose health and safety problems for the state and an unacceptable tradeoff in the effort to control proliferation. 9 references

AbstractAbstract
[en] An upgraded version of the high-level neutron coincidence counter (HLNC-II) has been designed with faster electronics, higher counting efficiencies, a more uniform counting response within the sample cavity, and improved ruggedness and portability. These procedures describe the assay of PuO2 powder for plutonium mass using the new HLNC-II along with the JOMAR JSR-11 electronics package, a Hewlett-Packard HP-85B computer, and the CC12 computer program

AbstractAbstract
[en] The paper discusses the safeguarding of nuclear power plants with particular emphasis on LWR reactors and some discussion of HWR reactors. The characteristics of nuclear power plants and of nuclear fuels and fuel elements existing there are outlined and typical fuel inventories described. Safeguards systems for nuclear reactors are then considered. These systems emphasize accounting for individual fuel elements and key measurement points within the reactor complex. Fuel inventories, detection targets, diversion possibilities, inspection activities and verification are outlined for both LWR's and HWR's
