Abstract
Measurements were made at one megawatt to determine the gamma dose rate per watt (ergs sec-i g-i-watt-i in carbon) and the fast neutron flux per watt (neutrons cm-2sec- watt/sup -1/ above 1.75 Mev) within the six irradiation voltunes of the Radiation Effects Facility. Measurements were made at two reactor heights for each of five different reactor shield tank configurations. The data are presented in the form of curves, which show the measurements as a function of distance within the irradiation volumes. The methods and instrumentation used in obtaining these measurements are also presented. (auth)
