Summary "Army Pulse Radiation Facility" by U.S. Army Ballistic Research Laboratory is a scientific publication written in the late 20th century. The book outlines the specifications, capabilities, and operational details of the Army Pulse Radiation Facility (APRF) designed for conducting experiments with neutron and gamma radiation. Its primary focus is on the facility's design and functionality to meet military testing needs related to radiation effects on materials. The book contains a comprehensive overview of the APRF, detailing its structure, including the Reactor Building and the supporting laboratories, while also providing intricate technical descriptions of the reactor's design and functionality. It describes the reactor's unique ability to deliver large fast neutron and gamma radiation doses in a controlled environment and explains exposure scenarios, performance levels, and safety protocols essential for users. Various tables illustrate core design data, performance metrics, and dosimetry methods available for experimentation, all aimed at facilitating research in nuclear weapon effects and defense-related technology.
