Abstract

Occupational exposure is the radiation exposure incurred at work, i.e., planned exposure of workers at nuclear power plants and fuel cycle facilities, as well as of workers who use radiation sources, accelerators, and X-ray machines in medicine, scientific research, education, agriculture, and industry, etc. Occupational exposure also includes radon in workplaces other than mines, and certain occupations involving exposure to ionizing radiation from natural sources. Workers performing recovery operations after an accident, or in an existing exposure situation, can be regarded as occupationally exposed as well.

The Van Allen belts are a collection of charged particles, gathered in place by Earth’s magnetic field.

It is a standard with the highest metrological qualities in a specified field. Primary standards are maintained at national laboratories that (a) perform research for the purposes of metrology and (b) participate in recognized international intercomparison of primary standards laboratories—NIST.

It is a standard whose value is fixed by direct comparison with a primary standard and which is accompanied by a certificate that documents this traceability.
