PHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS OF ACTIVITY IN SAMPLES FROM WINDSCALE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4279869
Gamma scintillation spectrometer measurements in samples of milk, herbage, and soil from the Windscale area are described. The geographical distribution of activity is studied, and the relative activities of I-131, Cs- 137, and Sr-89 are discussed. A correlation between I-131 in herbage and milk is recorded, and an estimate of the total deposition of I-131 on herbage is made. (auth)
