Controls gamma radiation equipment to irradiate materials for
scientific research: Inserts capsules of materials to be
irradiated into tubes leading to recator core, using extension
tool.
Computes radiation time and dosage for experiments, and
gamma intensities required at various distances from grid,
using standard formulas, conversion tables, and sldie rule, and
submits data to supervisor for review.
Tends cutoff saw,
mounted on water-filled canal floor (radiation shield), that
cuts fuel elements to size to fit into shielding boxes, using
