     The definitions of source terms to reactor containments and source terms to the environment are
     discussed. A comparison is made between the TID-14844 example source term and the
     alternative source term described in NUREG-1465. Comparisons of these source terms to the
     containments and those used in France, Germany, Japan, Sweden, and the United Kingdom are
     made. Source terms to the environment calculated in NUREG-1500 and WASH-1400 are
     discussed. Again, these so
