The conference, which will be held at the Knoxville Hilton Downtown in September 2014, explores the scientific, technological and engineering issues associated with particle and ionizing radiation shielding in its broadest context, including nuclear energy systems, ac- celerator facilities, space and other radiation environments. It is one of the premier inter- national radiation shielding events, regularly drawing hundreds of the world’s top scientists and engineers. Authors should submit summaries, up to 4 pages in length (PDF) in English via the confer- ence website (http://rpsd2014.org). The summary should clearly state the objectives, meth- odology, results and conclusion of the submission. Authors will be given the opportunity to have their summary forwarded to Nuclear Technology for consideration. Authors of selected summaries accepted by Nuclear Technology will be invited to publish a full journal article in a special issue of Nuclear Technology following the meeting.
