Description

I-131 was released by the accident of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. However, due to its short half-life and there are not enough data for this nuclide to understand its dispersal. In this study we determined I-129 (half-life: 1.57×107 years) in soil samples by AMS for estimating I-131/I-129 ratios. We also studied vertical distribution of radioiodine in soil and compared it with the profile of radiocesium in soil. (author)
