Description

The factors calculated for the report WASH 1400 according to ICRP's new model are dose commitment values of single inhalation that may occur in an accident. They can also be used as values of a maximum annual dose with continuous exposure. This applies to all relevant nuclides, even to cesium-137. (DG)
