201267790Washington DC: The National Academies Press 2012. PResumed first edition/first printing. Trade paperback. Very good. xx 200 p. Illustrations. References. Title continues: Nuclear and Radiation Studies Board DIvision of Earth and Life Studies Board on Higher Education and Workforce Division on Policy and Global Affairs National Research Council of the National Academies. This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration and other agencies. The growing use of nuclear medicine the potential expansion of nuclear power generation and the urgent needs to protect the nation against external nuclear threats to maintain our nuclear weapons stockpile and to manage the nuclear wastes generated in past decades require a substantial highly trained and exceptionally talented workforce. Assuring a Future U.S. -Based Nuclear and Radiochemistry Expertise examines supply and demand for expertise in nuclear chemistry nuclear science and radiochemistry in the United States and presents possible approaches for ensuring adequate availability of these skills including necessary science and technology training platforms. Considering a range of reasonable scenarios looking to the future none of these areas are likely to experience a decrease in demand for expertise. However many in the current workforce are approaching retirement age and the number of students opting for careers in nuclear and radiochemistry has decreased dramatically over the past few decades. In order to avoid a gap in these critical areas increases in student interest in these careers in the research and educational capacity of universities and colleges and sector specific on-the-job training will be needed. Concise recommendations are given for actions to avoid a shortage of nuclear chemistry nuclear scientists and radiochemists in the future. From Wikipedia: "The National Research Council NRC is the working arm of the United States National Academies which produces reports that shape policies inform public opinion and advance the pursuit of science engineering and medicine. The National Academies include: National Academy of Sciences NAS National Academy of Engineering NAE Institute of Medicine IOM Unlike the other three organizations of the National Academies the National Research Council is not a membership organization. The National Research Council was organized in 1916 in response to the increased need for scientific and technical services caused by World War I. On June 1 1917 the council convened a meeting of scientific representatives of the UK and France with interested parties from the US on the subject of submarine detection. The results obtained and the problems in the work were discussed. A further meeting with the British and French was held in Paris in October 1918 at which more details of their work was disclosed. As a result of this the council recommended that US scientists be brought together to work on the problems. A New York Group worked on "supersonics" as did a San Pedro Group. A New London Group worked on binaural receivers while Chicago and Wisconsin Groups were assigned various problems in support of the other groups. Due to the success of Council-directed research in producing a sound-based method of detecting submarines as well as other military innovations the NRC was retained at the end of the war though it was gradually decoupled from the military. The Research Council is currently administered jointly by the National Academy of Sciences the National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine and its work is overseen by a Governing Board and an Executive Committee."

A9780309087131Paperback / softback. New. This report is a review of the draft feasibility study that was issued at the request of Congress by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CDC and the National Cancer Institute NCI. Over 500 atmospheric nuclear-weapons tests were conducted at various sites around the world during 1945-1980. As public awareness and concern mounted over the possible health hazards associated with exposure to the fallout from weapons testing a feasibility study was initiated by CDC and NCI to assess the extent of the hazard. The CDC-NCI study claims that the fallout might have led to approximately 11000 excess deaths most caused by thyroid cancer linked to exposure to iodine-131. The committee noted that CDC and NCI used the best available data to estimate exposure and health hazards. The committee does not recommend an expanded study of exposure to radionuclides other than 131I since radiation doses from those radionuclides were much lower than those from 131I. It also recommended that CDC urge Congress to prohibit the destruction of all remaining records relevant to fallout. paperback

Compilation of briefing slides. Each briefing title slide has statement that the content is UNCLASSIFIED. The Y-12 National Security Complex is a United States Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration facility located in Oak Ridge Tennessee near the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. It was built as part of the Manhattan Project for the purpose of enriching uranium for the first atomic bombs. It is considered the birthplace of the atomic bomb. In the years after World War II it has been operated as a manufacturing facility for nuclear weapons components and related defense purposes. Y-12 is managed and operated under contract by Consolidated Nuclear Security LLC CNS which is composed of member companies Bechtel National Inc. Leidos Inc. Orbital ATK Inc and SOC LLC with Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. as a teaming subcontractor. CNS also operates Pantex Plant in Texas.

196982559Sandia Base Albuquerque New Mexico: Defense Atomic Support Agency Field Command Nuclear Training Directorate 1969. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Wraps. Good. Three-hole punched and stapled at left side. iv 22 pages. Illustrated front cover. Illustrations. Cover has some wear. The Table of Contents has an introduction and sections on: Pershing Organization Characteristics Pershing Missile Ground Support Equipment Trajectory Theory Flight Sequence and Summary. The fifteen illustrations are: Pershing 1a System Missile Structures Battery Control Central Erector-Launcher and M757 Tractor Programer-Test Station and Power Station Vehicle Radio Terminal Set AN/TRC-80 Missile Section Containers Pershing Trajectory First-Stage Ignition Coast Period First-State Separation and Second-Stage Ignition Thrust Termination and Warhead Separation Case Venting Warhead Reentry and Detonation. In order to improve Pershing's performance in the quick reaction alert role Pershing 1a was developed. Ground support equipment was designed for maximum tactical and strategic mobility electronic computation of firing data and automatic test and checkout equipment. The Pershing 1a also had a specially designed communications set that allowed extremely reliable communications over great distances 99.9-percent reliability at 160 kilometers. This publication was intended for home study and reference by students attending the Nuclear Weapons Maintenance Course Army Weapons Division Nuclear Training Directorate Field Command. An understanding of the facts herein was deemed essential for the proper comprehension of classroom instruction in these courses. 1964 a series of operational tests and follow-on tests were performed to determine Pershing reliability. The Secretary of Defense then requested that the Army define the modifications required to make Pershing suitable for the Quick Reaction Alert QRA role. The Pershing 1a development program was approved in 1965 the original Pershing renamed to Pershing 1 and Martin Marietta received the Pershing 1a production contract in 1967. Project SWAP replaced all the Pershing equipment in Germany by mid-1970 and the first units quickly achieved QRA status. Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara directed that the U.S. Air Force's MGM-13 Mace missile would be replaced by the Pershing 1a in 1965. Pershing 1a was a Quick Reaction Alert system and so had faster vehicles launch times and newer electronics. The total number of launchers increased from 8 to 36 per battalion. Production of the Pershing 1a missile ended in 1975 and reopened in 1977 to replace missiles expended in training. Pershing 1a was further improved in 1971 with the Pershing Missile and Power Station Development Program. A total of 754 MGM-31A missiles were built.
