 Operational
Health Physics Training By H.J. Moe
Before there was a CORE Study Guide, before there was a NEU
Study Guide, there was Moe. In it's first incarnation it was "Radiation
Safety Technician Training Manual, ANL-7291", known to all as the "Moe
Handbook". It was updated in June of 1992 due to
changes in radiation protection standards and measurement technology since its
original publication in May,1972 and renamed "Operational Health Physics
Training, ANL-88-26". However, if you look in the references section of
practically every HP book, you'll find it listed. In my opinion, it is one
of the BEST reference materials for HP Technicians. It Covers Reactor
Operations, Particle Accelerators, and X-Ray Devices as well as the basics.
It's a "Must Read".
The entire Manual is about 50 MB in PDF format (929 pages), so I have
broken it into 28 smaller sections to make downloading it easier.
