Abstract
This paper discusses two new Random Drivers built by NNC. The smaller machine, Mini Random Driver, is designed to give high sensitivity for small samples (10 mg Pu). The larger machine, Jumbo Random Driver, is designed to assay material in large containers including 200 1 (55 gal) waste barrels and large filters. These systems can assay uranium or Plutonium in either active or passive modes. A description of each instrument with calibration results is presented.
