Consequence analysis of plutonium explosion in terror event

Description

Based on the numerical simulation technique, the translation rate of plutonium aerosol is quantitatively analyzed in case of detonator explosion under terror event. According to the different respirable fraction, the HotSpot nuclear accident aftereffect evaluation model was used to calculate radiation characters. The calculated result suggests that different respirable fraction has significant affects on the radiation damage defense and disposal of nuclear accident. (authors)
