Publications of the Expert Committee II: Radioactive fallout

The first contribution analyzes the airflow conditions in mountain valleys and in the area of ridge tops and points out special problems of exposure of the population to radioactive aerosols being carried by the air, possibly resulting in extreme loads at isolated points. In the second contribution it is proposed to take advantage of the lyoluminescence of sugar for the disaster dosimetry which would allow the estimation of local doses with a manual and simple, available equipment, thus serving as a relief for the medical sector.
