Description

Excavation of the water conducting shear zone used for radionuclide tracer migration experiments is the latest research project on radionuclide movement in saturated media at the GTS. Prior to excavation multitracer solutions containing γ- and α-emitting nuclides were injected and the water extracted was analyzed on-line using in-situ high resolution γ-spectrometry. In addition, water samples were collected to quantitatively compare the on-line data with subsequent laboratory measurements (α- and γ-spectrometry), and also to analyze samples with activities below the detection limits of the in-situ analysis.
