Study Notes

ADT 1 Key Concepts

  • Stabilization, Isolation, Confirmation, Assessment, Awareness are fundamental concepts in the overview of Incident Command phases.
  • Phase 0 has 3 levels, focusing on awareness, detection, and triage.
  • Technical First Responders who are ADT 1 qualified must execute the basic Joint Mission Essential Task (JMET) including detection, communication, and triage during stable operations.
  • Threat Assessment is carried out by ADT 2/EOD trained Technical First Responders.
  • Phases of National Significance during an incident consist of RSP Safe to Move, RSP Safe to Ship, and Forensics, forming tactical phases necessary throughout the incident.
  • Presidential Directives PPD8 and PPD25 guide the National Preparedness framework and domestic crisis response protocols.
  • Strategic Operational and Tactical Control is defined as oversight of DOD personnel across CONUS and OCONUS for incidents of National Significance.
  • Aerial Measuring Systems (AMS) and RAP teams are valuable NNSA assets for airborne radiation detection.
  • Subatomic Particles: Protons determine the element, neutrons influence nuclear properties, and electrons shape chemical behavior based on their arrangement in outer shells.
  • In the isotope (^{63}_{29}Cu): Protons = 29, Neutrons = 34, Electrons = 29.
  • Law of Conservation of Mass-Energy states that energy and mass remain constant in the universe, succinctly expressed as E=MC².
  • Mass Defect is the concept of losing a small amount of mass to maintain atomic stability.
  • N:P Ratio (Neutron to Proton ratio) is critical for assessing an atom's nuclear stability.
  • Contamination vs Radiation: Contamination refers to the presence of undesired materials while radiation refers to energy emitted from atomic reactions.

Radiation Properties

  • Alpha Radiation:

    • Originates in nucleus with a charge of 2.
    • Range of 3-5 cm in air.
    • Protective measures include respiratory protection and protective clothing.

  • Beta Radiation:

    • Originates in nucleus with either a +1 or -1 charge.
    • Range of approximately 4 meters in air.
    • Respiratory protection and protective clothing are required to mitigate exposure.

  • Gamma and X-ray Radiation:

    • Originate in nucleus with a neutral charge (0).
    • Range extends to hundreds of meters in air.
    • High-Z materials (like lead, iron, or tungsten) are necessary for protection against these types of radiation.

  • Gamma and X-rays are both forms of electromagnetic radiation.

  • Ionization occurs when energy is added to overcome the binding energy of electrons, resulting in their removal from atoms.

  • Excitation involves adding sufficient energy to an electron to elevate it to a higher energy state without removing it.

Ionization Types

  • Direct Ionization is caused by Alpha, Beta particles, and protons (mass).
  • Indirect Ionization results from X-ray, Gamma rays, and neutrons.
  • Bremsstrahlung is radiation resulting from beta particles being attracted to high-Z materials.

Photon Interactions

  • Photoelectric Effect: Photons transfer all energy to an electron, ejecting it and raising it to a higher orbit.
  • Compton Scattering involves photons transferring part of their energy to electrons, affecting their energy state.

Neutron Interactions

  • Neutron Absorption can lead to processes like radioactive capture, charged particle emission, or fission, impacting the stability of elements.
  • Radiation Protection Materials are categorized as follows:
    • Alpha particles: shielded by paper, cardboard, or plastic.
    • Beta particles: require light metals for protection.
    • Gamma and X-rays: high-Z materials are essential for safety.
