Evaluation of Radionuclide Emission into the Environment in the Case of the Accident on the Sunken Nuclear Submarine B-159

摘要

Variants of a hypothetical accident that includes the occurrence of a spontaneous chain reaction are examined. The pathways and intensity of radionuclide emission from a nuclear submarine into seawater are determined. The Cs-137 accumulation at the time of sinking is determined more accurately. The average and maximum Cs-137 emission for use in predicting the contamination of the marine environment in application to the object under study are determined.
