  1. 1. On-line Mobile in situ Gamma Spectrometry

    Författare :Thomas Hjerpe; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiobiologi; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; radiation protection.; 137Cs; peak-to-valley method; depth distribution; orphan source search; orphan sources; emergency preparedness; mobile gamma spectrometry; nuclear accidents; Nuclear medicine; radiobiology; Nukleärmedicin;

    Sammanfattning : Mobile in situ gamma spectrometry is an important instrument in the emergency preparedness for nuclear accidents. This work contributes through the development of strategies and analysis methods for two applications: an on-line search for gamma-emitting orphan sources and on-line estimation of the depth distribution of 137Cs.

  3. 3. Formation, partitioning and interactions of organic iodides under severe nuclear accident conditions

    Författare :Sabrina Tietze; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Epoxy paint; Methyl iodide; Iodine source term; Organic iodides; Severe nuclear accidents;

    Sammanfattning : During severe nuclear reactor accidents such as Chernobyl or Fukushima large amounts of radioactive iodine can be released in form of inorganic and organic iodine species into the environment. Volatile radioactive iodine species are harmful to human health when inhaled. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Radiobiological effects of the thyroid gland - transcriptomic and proteomic responses to 131l and 211At exposure

    Författare :Nils Rudqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; astatine-211; iodine-131; radionuclide therapy; nuclear medicine; environmental exposure; thyroid; radiation biology; transcriptomics; proteomics; ionizing radiation; toxicity; normal tissue damage; microarray; LC-MS; biomarker;

    Sammanfattning : Radionuclides are widely used in medicine. 131I is one of the most employed radionuclides and is administered to patients either bound to tumor targeting molecules or as halide to target the thyroid or thyroid cancer. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Mobilization and Management of Tellurium in Severe Accident Scenarios

    Författare :Anna-Elina Pasi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nuclear; gamma irradiation; source term; severe accident; tellurium;

    Sammanfattning : Safety is one of the highest priorities in any industry. In the nuclear industry, safety is in the essence since in case of a nuclear accident, the consequences can be long-lasting, hazardous, and devastating to the public, environment, and the industry. LÄS MER
