Description

Autoradiography is used to identify radioactive microparticles in the small soil fraction. Microparticles containing α-emitters are detected. Radiochemical and α-spectrometric methods revealed the nature of the α-tracks. The contents of Pu and 241Am in the studied sample are estimated. The data confirm the open-quotes Chernobyl originclose quotes of the contaminated Bryanski soil (Novozybkovsk region)
