fission product source terms.....

[Dave Brown <david.brown@nist.gov>]

I am searching for a good reference on fission product source terms for

reactor accident scenarios.  Specifically I'm looking  at

nuclide source terms for fission product releases that drive the off-site

exposure, ie...noble gasses and halogens.  I'm being a bit lazy in

not wanting to go thru the calculations for all of the possibilities, I

also am a firm believer in not 're-inventing the wheel'.  I know

that using a code like ORIGEN is the way to go but I'm not very

proficient in using it.

Any help would be appreciated...

I'd also be very interested in a class on the ORIGEN code if anyone knows of one they'd recommend.

Regards,
