The Fukushima nuclear accident caused the release of large amounts of radionuclides into
the environment. After the accident, radioactive contamination assessment in environmental …

Abstract Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) provides with an excellent sensitivity for the
determination of radionuclides in the environment. In fact, conventional radiometric …

The long-lived radioactive iodine (129 I) is a useful geochemical tracer of radioactivity in the
atmospheric environment. Although the behavior of 129 I in the atmosphere is still not fully …

Relationships between the beryllium-7 activity concentrations in surface air and
meteorological parameters (temperature, atmospheric pressure, and precipitation) …

In this work, a study has been conducted to carry out a qualitative analysis for the evaluation
of radiation exposure from SMART reactor. Since SMART reactor is large LOCA proof …

New data on the presence of 129 I in seawater in the Southern Hemisphere measured by
Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) is presented. The samples were collected in 2014 …

L'utilisation de l'énergie atomique à des fins pacifiques (production d'électricité, mesures
industrielles, diagnostic et soins médicaux) a donné lieu à des accidents nucléaires variés …

The peaceful use of atomic energy has given rise to a variety of nuclear accidents from the
start. This concerns all forms of use, industrial and medical. For each accident, Industrial and …

Abstract In this chapter Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) is introduced as a mass
spectrometry technique that enables overcoming the limitations of conventional (or low …

The determination of environmental radioactivity requires the use of radiochemistry
methods. In this chapter, the principles of radiochemistry are introduced with the aim of …
