AbstractAbstract
[en] Pulse height distributions were measured using a CdZnTe detector inside a lead collimator to investigate main source producing high dose rates above the shield plugs of Unit 3 at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. It was confirmed that low energy photons are dominant. Concentrations of 137Cs under 60 cm concrete of the shield plug were estimated to be between 8.1*10+9 and 5.7*10+10 Bq/cm2 from the measured peak count rate of 0.662 MeV photons. If 137Cs was distributed on the surfaces of the gaps with radius 6 m and with the averaged concentration at 5 points equal to 2.6*10+10 Bq/cm2, the total amount of 137Cs is estimated to be 30 PBq. The results of our measurements show that a larger amount of 137Cs than emitted into the environment at the time of accident, exists between the gaps of the shield plugs
