Series Description: This series contains statistics for thermoluminescent neutron dosimeter (TLND) chip matching for thermoluminescent dosimeter types 700 and 600 (gamma). Full set and subset operations include number of chips, "X", and "S". Attached are computer-generated reports listing TLND chip rejects with wheel, position, and result numbers. The series includes a folder of monthly chip screenings listing date, cycle date, chip type, reference chip mean, reference chip percent standard deviation, and wheel position and number. TLND Frequency Distribution sheets include dose range and frequency for chip type. The series also includes a log in which chronological entries list reference chips annealed, reannealed, and exposed (in millirem). Batch and wheel numbers are given. Also included is a log documenting the operation of the Atlas Reader-Harshaw Nuclear Systems-Model 2000D.
