[ RadSafe ] IBIS Sr-90 source construction

[Rees, Brian G]

Franz,

I figured that someone on this list would know, trying to find out via the helicopter manufacturer would be byzantine, at best.

Secondly, that knowledge might help others on the list, since when helicopters crash somebody might detect some radiation, and knowing the source's properties could save some angst.

Does anybody on the list know the physical form of Sr-90 sources used in helicopter blade pressure indicators?

Specifically, is it strontium titanate, or some other material with a low solubility?

Thanks,
Brian Rees
