Small high-activity radioactive particles of nominal diameter ranging from∼ 1 mm down to
several µm have been a radiological concern over the last 30 years in and around European …

This paper presents the results of an attenuation model for remote depth estimation of buried
radioactive wastes using a Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) detector. Previous research using …

Existing remote radioactive contamination depth estimation methods for buried radioactive
wastes are either limited to less than 2 cm or are based on empirical models that require …

A monitoring programme, in place since 2006, continues to recover radioactive particles (< 2
mm diameter) and larger objects from the beaches of West Cumbria. The potential risks to …

Discrete fragments of irradiated nuclear fuel have been discovered on the foreshore at the
Dounreay nuclear site in Scotland, offshore on the seabed and at nearby beaches which …

This paper discusses issues in stakeholder relations, focusing on the challenges of liabilities
management associated with small fragments of irradiated nuclear fuel hereafter termed …

The size of hot particles contained in nuclear fallout ranges from 10 nm to 20 µm for the
worldwide weapons fallout. Hot particles from nuclear power reactors can be significantly …

This paper presents improved results using a Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) detector for a
recently developed image-based nonintrusive depth estimation method for buried …

Since 2006 an intensive programme of monitoring for radioactive objects has been carried
out on beaches in the vicinity of the Sellafield site in West Cumbria. By the end of the …
