Size Distributions of Airborne Radionuclides from the Fukushima Nuclear Accident at Several Places in Europe
Original language description
Segregation and radioactive analysis of aerosols according to their aerodynamic size were performed in France, Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Germany, and Greece after the arrival of contaminated air masses following the nuclear accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant in March 2011. On the whole and regardless of the location, the highest activity levels correspond either to the finest particle fraction or to the upper size class. Regarding anthropogenic radionuclides, the activitymedian aerodynamic diameter (AMAD) ranged between 0.25 and 0.71 mu M for Cs-137, from 0.17 to 0.69 mu m for Cs-134, and from 0.30 to 0.53 mu m for I-131, thus in the "accumulation mode" of the ambient aerosol (0.1-1 mu m). AMAD obtained for the naturallyoccurring radionuclides Be-7 and Pb-210 ranged from 0.20 to 0.53 mu m and 0.29 to 0.52 mu m, respectively. Regarding spatial variations, AMADs did not show large differences from place to place compared with what was observed concerning
