N.J. Admin. Code § 7:28-20.2
The following words and terms, when used in this subchapter, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:
"Direct supervision" means guidance and instruction by the qualified machine operator who is physically present, is watching the operation of the particle accelerator, and is available for immediate assistance.
"Electron microscope" means a machine that accelerates electrons for the purpose of producing highly magnified images of materials and material surfaces.
"kVp" means kilovolt peak.
"Particle accelerator" means any machine that accelerates charged particles (electrons, protons, deuterons, or other charged particles, etc.) in a vacuum and discharges the resulting particulate or other radiation but which does not meet the specifications of machines currently regulated under N.J.A.C. 7:28-14 through 16; particle accelerators include, but are not limited to, machines used for research, irradiation, or other purposes; such machines include, but are not limited to, potential-drop accelerators, electron linear accelerators, cyclotrons, betatrons, microtrons, ion implant accelerators, and electron microscopes; particle accelerators do not include high voltage generators, televisions, video display terminals, cathode ray tubes or other similar devices whose primary purpose is not the production of a useful charged particle beam.
"Particle accelerator facility" means the location at which one or more particle accelerators are installed and are operated under the same administrative control.
"Particle accelerator safety officer" or "PASO" means the person who is appointed and authorized by the registrant to act on the registrant's behalf to implement and maintain the particle accelerator radiation protection program for the registrant's facility.
"Performance test" means a procedure which is performed to assure that an instrument continues to perform its intended function.
"Qualified machine operator" means a person who meets the requirements of 7:28-20.6(a).
"Radiation protection committee" means a group consisting of at least three individuals appointed by the registrant who identify radiation safety problems, initiate, recommend, or provide corrective action plans, and verify the implementation of corrective actions. One member of this committee shall be the particle accelerator safety officer and one member shall be a representative of management. The remaining members shall be appointed at the discretion of the registrant.
"Scattered radiation" means radiation that, during passage through matter, has changed in direction or in energy.
"Stray radiation" means the sum of leakage and scattered radiation.
