NRC proposes changes to its rules on nuclear materials
In response to Executive Order 14300, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” the NRC is proposing sweeping changes to its rules governing the use of nuclear materials that are widely used in industry, medicine, and research. The changes would amend NRC regulations for the licensing of nuclear byproduct material, some source material, and some special nuclear material.
As published in the May 18 Federal Register, the NRC is seeking public comment on this proposed rule and draft interim guidance until July 2.

In a discussion of the interpretation of the data obtained by a multichannel analyzer from a sample containing mixed gamma-ray emitting isotopes, it is concluded that dead time losses influence both the magnitude and shape of the composite spectrum. A relation including appropriate corrections is presented.
