Aerial Radiological Measuring Survey of the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station August 1969

摘要

The Aerial Radiological Measuring System (ARMS) was used to survey the area surrounding the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station during August 1969. The survey measured terrestrial background gamma radiation.nA high-sensitivity detection system collected gamma-ray spectral and gross-count data. The data were then computer processed into a map of an 800 square mile area showing isoexposure contours three feet above the ground. Exposure rates and isotopes identified are consistent with normal terrestrial background radiation.
