Xenon-133 and caesium-137 releases into the atmosphere from the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant: Determination of the source term, atmospheric dispersion, and deposition
(2021-03-01)
Article
Open AccessOn 11 March 2011, an earthquake occurred about 130 km off the Pacific coast of Japan's main island Honshu, followed by a large tsunami. The resulting loss of electric power at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant ... -
Report of IRPA task group on issues and actions taken in response to the change in eye lens dose limit
(2020-12-01)
Article
Open AccessIn 2018, the International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA) established its third task group (TG) on the implementation of the eye lens dose limit. To contribute to sharing experience and raising awareness within ... -
Radiation-induced lens opacities: Epidemiological, clinical and experimental evidence, methodological issues, research gaps and strategy
(Elsevier, 2021-01-01)
Article
Open AccessIn 2011, the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) recommended reducing the occupational equivalent dose limit for the lens of the eye from 150 mSv/year to 20 mSv/year, averaged over five years, with ... -
Effect of the radiation protective apron on the response of active and passive personal dosemeters used in interventional radiology and cardiology
(2019-03)
Article
Open AccessIn fluoroscopy guided interventional procedures, workers use protective garments and often two personal dosemeters, the readings of which are used for the estimation of the effective dose; whereas the dosemeter above the ... -
A parametric study of occupational radiation dose in interventional radiology by Monte-Carlo simulations
(2020-10-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents the results of a parametric study on the occupational exposure in interventional radiology to explore the influence of various variables on the staff doses. These variables include the angiography beam ... -
REFLECT – Research flight of EURADOS and CRREAT: Intercomparison of various radiation dosimeters onboard aircraft
(2020-09-01)
Article
Open AccessAircraft crew are one of the groups of radiation workers which receive the highest annual exposure to ionizing radiation. Validation of computer codes used routinely for calculation of the exposure due to cosmic radiation ... -
Applicability of the closed-circuit accumulation chamber technique to measure radon surface exhalation rate under laboratory conditions
(2020-04-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA layer of phosphogypsum was placed at the bottom of two large volume boxes. This system allowed to measure the surface radon exhalation from phosphogypsum without altering the emitting material. The limits and optimal ... -

Intercomparison study of atmospheric 222Rn and 222Rn progeny monitors
(2020-05-08)
Article
Open AccessThe use of the noble gas radon (222Rn) as a tracer for different research studies, for example observation-based estimation of greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes, has led to the need of high-quality 222Rn activity concentration ... -
Material characterization and Monte Carlo simulation of lead and non-lead X-Ray shielding materials
(2020-04-16)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this paper, the compositions of commercial lead and non-lead X-ray protective materials were investigated by material analysis methods as FTIR-ATR, SEM/EDS, and density measurement to estimate the content of the structures, ... -
EURADOS education and training activities
(2019-09-24)
Article
Open AccessThis paper provides a summary of the Education and Training (E&T) activities that have been developed and organised by the European Radiation Dosimetry Group (EURADOS) in recent years and in the case of Training Courses ... -
How to establish an adequate system for eye lens dose monitoring: a proposal for typical workplaces
(2019-12-31)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyFor years, the dose limit of 150 mSv for occupational exposure of the lens of the eye to ionising radiation was rarely exceeded, and the dose to the eye was only monitored occasionally. With the national implementation of ...
