Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Human Monitoring Laboratory has extended the use of its portable whole body counters to portable gamma spectrometers for urinalysis. The protocol tested measured a 120-mL sample in a polypropylene sample container for 5 min. Minimum detectable activities were estimated for 241Am, 57Co, 137Cs, and 60Co. The former is 113 Bq per sample, and the latter three are between 27-29 Bq per sample. Assuming an intake 5 d before the measurement, and all other parameters as default, the committed effective doses are 517 Sv, 76 muSv, 402 muSv, and 1.5 mSv, respectively. Clearly, this instrument can be used as a field deployable gamma spectrometer for urinalysis for activation and fission products, but actinides (and other low energy photon emitters) remain problematic.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
