Workers at nuclear power plants and other facilities where neutron radiation is present are monitored closely to determine the amount of radiation, or dose, they receive. The Wide-Energy Neutron Detection Instrument developed by Los Alamos, Varian Oncology Systems and San Jose State University Foundation measures neutron dose with unequaled accuracy and sensitivity. WENDI's superior accuracy will help create a safer environment for people working in nuclear power plants, medical centers where accelerators are used to treat cancer, oil-well-logging sites, particle accelerator research centers and nuclear-materials labs.
