Plutonium release from Fukushima Daiichi fosters the need for more detailed investigations
The contamination of Japan after the Fukushima accident has been investigated mainly for volatile fission products, but only sparsely for actinides such as plutonium. Only small releases of actinides were estimated in Fukushima. Plutonium is still omnipresent in the environment from previous atmospheric nuclear weapons tests. We investigated soil and plants sampled at different hot spots in Jap...
متن کاملRadionuclide Analysis on Bamboos following the Fukushima Nuclear Accident
In response to contamination from the recent Fukushima nuclear accident, we conducted radionuclide analysis on bamboos sampled from six sites within a 25 to 980 km radius of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. Maximum activity concentrations of radiocesium (134)Cs and (137)Cs in samples from Fukushima city, 65 km away from the Fukushima Daiichi plant, were in excess of 71 and 79 kBq/kg, ...
متن کاملRelease of plutonium isotopes from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident
The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident has caused serious contamination in the environment. In this work, we summarize and analyze published studies related to the release of Pu from the FDNPP accident using environmental sample analysis and ORIGEN model simulation. Our analysis focuses on several aspects: first, the investigation of the distribution of Pu isotopes derived f...
متن کاملRecent Fukushima nuclear detonation, Chernobyl nuclear fallout, three mile island nuclear accident and atomic bomb explosion – rethinking the effects of nuclear radiations over human health
Background: The earlier Atomic Bomb explosion in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and three worth mentioning nuclear accidents - detonation at Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, Chernobyl nuclear fallout and an accident at Three Mile Island nuclear power plant have made us more worried about the secure exploitation of nuclear energy. The central focus of this paper is to review radiation-mediated health e...
متن کاملPreliminary Estimation of Release Amounts of I and Cs Accidentally Discharged from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Atmosphere
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident in Japan triggered by a magnitude 9.0 earthquake and resulting tsunami on March 11, 2011 caused the month-long discharge of radioactive materials into the atmosphere. It is urgent to assess the radiological dose to the public resulting from this release, using both environmental monitoring data and computer simulation based on atmospheric dispe...
متن کاملDetection of (133)Xe from the Fukushima nuclear power plant in the upper troposphere above Germany.
After the accident in the Japanese Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant in March 2011 large amounts of radioactivity were released and distributed in the atmosphere. Among them were also radioactive noble gas isotopes which can be used as tracers to test global atmospheric circulation models. This work presents unique measurements of the radionuclide (133)Xe from Fukushima in the upper tropos...
