Residual Radioactivity Measurement in Hiroshima and Nagasaki for the Evaluation of DS86 Neutron Fluence

Residual Eu activity produced by neutrons from the Nagasaki atomic bomb has been measured in seven mineral samples located up to 1142m from the epicenter. Europium was chemically separated from the sample and gamma-ray measurement was carried out with a well-type Ge detector. Deduced specific activities were compared with previous measurements and with activation calculation based on the DS86 n...

Alpha radioactivity in Indian cement samples

ABSTRACT  Background: The essential constituents of cements like lime, silica and alumina are derived from earth’s crust in which radioactive elements like uranium, thorium etc are also present in varying amounts almost everywhere. These two elements are considered as the parent elements of uranium and thorium radioactive decay series in which radon and thoron are produced respectively as decay...

Neutron radioactivity—Lifetime measurements of neutron-unbound states

A new technique to measure the lifetime � of a neutron-radioactive nucleus that decays in-flight via neutron emission is presented and demonstrated utilizing MonteCarlo simulations. The method is based on the production of the neutron-unbound nucleus in a target, which at the same time slows down the produced nucleus and the residual nucleus after (multi-) neutron emission. The spectrum of the ...

Radioactivity in human tissues

The radioactivity in human tissues (lungs) obtained from the dead body of people who died by lung cancer in the region of Ptolemais, Northern Greece, where 16 units of 4 major coal-fired power plants are in operation, was studied. The specific activities of radioactive nuclides searched for in human tissues were not remarkable. The syndrome of lung cancer deaths at that area which showed an inc...
