Mustard to wine...aspects of the IAEA's recent work on the control of radioactive sources.
This paper reviews the International Atomic Energy Agency's "International Conference on the Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources: Towards a Global System for the Continuous Control of Sources throughout their Life Cycle," which was held in Bordeaux, France, from 27 June to 1 July 2005. Some high points of the progress in controlling radioactive sources since the similar meeting in Dijon (1998) are discussed. The impact of the IAEA's Code of Conduct on the Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources for radioactive material licensees in the United States of America is summarized.
