Creators

  • 1. Service mixte de Securite Radiologicue, Montlhery (France)

Description

Radioactive aerosols particles are collected in surface air, using cellulose filters and high output pumps (110 m3/h). After removal, the filters are subjected to alpha counting, using ZnS counter, and beta counting, using proportional counter. Later, filters collected at one location during any one month period are assembled, calcined and dissolved in acid for the purpose of measuring the gamma emitters activity by gamma spectroscopy using a HP Ge detector.
