RPSD

 

The Radiation Protection and Shielding Division of the American Nuclear Society is concerned with radiation protection and shielding aspects of nuclear science and technology -- including interaction of nuclear radiation with materials and biological systems, instruments and techniques for the measurement of nuclear radiation fields, and radiation shield design and evaluation.

Our next topical meeting, ICRS 12 and RPSD 2012 in Nara, Japan follows our successful RPSD 2010 in Las Vegas, NV (18-23 Apr 2010)

For more information about the RPSD, please see our newsletters or meeting minutes in the governance pages.

Do you ever wonder about "ethics" in your profession? If so, you might be interested in discussion topics from the 2009 and 2010 meetings: ethics made simple, approaches to ethics in life, disciplinary action against nuclear PEs?

You may also be interested in issues surrounding:

professional judgment, competing choices, employer pressure, personal morality/professional ethics, and finally, due diligence.
