|
|
|
|
|
RAD*TOOLS is a element and radionuclide information database, radioactive decay calculator, dose rate calculator, emission range calculator, and more. An INCREDIBLE learning tool for Health Physics!
The August 4, 2006 release (Version 3.1.7) of RAD*TOOLS adds quite a bit more than the last version:
Version 3.1.4
Added calculation of flux from rectangular sources and associated comments
Added calculation of buildup factors using the Berger form
Added references for parameters for Berger and Taylor form of buildup factors
Added atomic weight for all radionuclides to MASTRAD
Added atomic weight to the MASTRAD browse screen
Added a new tab to the MASTRAD update form to calculate binding energy and binding energy per nucleon
Version 3.1.5
Added interpolation to attenuation coefficient routine
Added display of HVL, TVL, mfp, etc for intepolation determined value of mu
Added atomic weight and atomic number to natural elements file
Corrected all values of atomic weight, number, and abundance to coincide with NIST reference.
Changed sequence to get symbol from Atomic file for natural elements.
Added isotope symbol (atomic number, atomic weight, chemical symbol) for natural elements.
Added calculation of mass concentration (ppm and ppb) for the three molar/activity routines.
Corrected an error in the calculation of density, some variables were in the wrong place and changed Decimals to Real.
Corrected moles to mols and mole to mol (not a chemist) Dixie says a mole is a critter.
Added ppm to mol to activity, also added to reports.
Added many more values of ALI (ingestion and inhalation) and DACs from 10 CFR Part 20.
Straightened out some items on MASTRAD Update screen.
Added information screen for calculation of attenuation factors for compounds or mixtures.
Added information screen for interpolation of attenuation coefficients.
Added information screen for determination of Highway Route Controlled Quantity.
Added information screen for determination of range of particles.
Added ppb to mol to activity, also added to reports.
Added neutron weighting factors from ICRP-60 to neutron quality factor screens.
Added mass-energy absorption coefficients from Cember "Introduction to Health Physics" 3rd Edition.
Added ability to interpolate mass energy absorption coefficients.
Added explaination on how to use mass energy absorption coefficients.
Corrected a minor notation problem on the attenuation coefficient screen.
Added print capability for Stay Time calculation.
Added print capability for Rectangular Source calculation.
Added print routine for Berger Buildup factors.
Added print routine for Taylor Buildup factors.
Added print routine for Inverse Square to Distance and inverse square to Dose routines.
Enhanced the printout from the Master Radionuclide List.
Added a printout from the nucleon masses and binding energy calculation.
Added a printout of material density for MKS units and one for FPS units.
Added nucleons, binding energy and binding energy per nucleon to natural (stable and radioactive) elements.
Version 3.1.6
Changed opening screen - based on recommendations of UNLV Advanced Health Physics Class.
Added the periodic table interface to the elements.
Added element specific help and access to radionuclide information and emissions.
Enhanced operation of daughter product determination.
Added wood grain background for all menu screens, form screens, and browse screens.
Version 3.1.7 - August 4, 2006
Reorganized several screens to improve appearance.
Changed interpolation routine to show values from file before entry.
Added print routine to the calculation of mass from activity.
Added print routine to the calculation of activity from mass.
Added 150+ radionuclides to the DAC/ALI tables.
Added the ability to print to a PDF file.
Added the ability to print to an HTML file.
