Historical Standard: ASTM E2003-98(2004) Standard Practice for Fabrication of the Neutron Radiographic Beam Purity Indicators
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM E2003
1. Scope
1.1 This practice covers the material and fabrication of a Beam Purity Indicator (BPI), which can be used to determine the relative quality of radiographic images produced by direct, thermal neutron radiographic examination.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are regarded to be standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
