THE INFLUENCE OF SOIL DENSITY AND THE CHARACTER OF RADIOACTIVE 134Cs And 137Cs POLLUTION’S DISTRIBUTION ON in situ MEASUREMENTS by A. I. Zhukouski, O. M. Anshakou, A. O. Nichyparchuk, P. M. Marozik, S. A. Kuten

“…As a result of theoretical estimations, the relationship between the effective radius of contaminated site is determined as a function of soil density.Analysis of the influence of radial zones of the cylindrical gamma source on in situ gamma-spectrometer showed that the main contribution to the total count rate of the pulse-amplitude spectrum is made by the radial zone with radius of up to 40 cm from the center of the probe, regardless of the thickness of the contaminated layer in geometry «Probe is located on the soil surface». …”
