Atomic bomb induced 152Eu: reconciliation of discrepancy between measurements and calculation

K Komura et al. Health Phys. 2007 Apr.

Abstract

In order to resolve the discrepancy between the measured and calculated 152Eu activity induced by the atomic bomb at Hiroshima, extremely low background gamma-ray spectrometry was performed for 17 granite samples collected from 134 m to more than 3 km from the hypocenter. Measurements agreed well with theoretical calculations based on DS02 up to 1.4 km from hypocenter.
