On radiation-chemical mechanism of chlorine generation in the nuclear cavities

The work the attempt for theoretical estimation of possible release of chlorine from halogen, materials of salt thickness in the condition of radioactive emanation effect from fission fragments concentrated on the bottom and the places of non-watery underground nuclear explosion caverns is made. The theoretical calculations on derivable chlorine volumes determination in the result of post-explosion radiolysis of way an accommodating nuclear cavities showing that at an explosion capacity 10 kt of trinitrotoluol equivalent could be selected up to 300 kg of gas-like chlorine, and at help of explosion capacity 100 kt - up to 3000 kg
