Scientists face challenge in identifying the radioactive materials which are found as dotted
images on various imaging plate (IP) autoradiographic photos of radioactively contaminated …

Here we report the results of multiple analytical techniques on sub-mm particulate material
derived from Unit 1 of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant to provide a better …

Electron microscope (EM) was developed in 1931 and since then microscopical
examination of both the biological and non‐biological samples has been revolutionized …

Two types of radioactive particles were isolated from environmental samples collected at
various distances from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station.“Type A” particles are …

Radiocaesium-bearing microparticles (CsMPs) composed of silicate glass were released by
the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in March 2011. Since CsMPs contain a …

Trace U was released from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) during the
meltdowns, but the speciation of the released components of the nuclear fuel remains …

We found four radiocesium-bearing microparticles (CsMPs) with high cesium (Cs)
radioactivity in suspended particles collected from the Kuchibuto River in Fukushima by …

Understanding radioactive Cs contamination has been a central issue at Fukushima Daiichi
and other nuclear legacy sites; however, atomic-scale characterization of radioactive Cs in …

Spherical radioactive caesium (Cs)-bearing microparticles (CsMPs) were emitted during the
Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident in March, 2011. The emission …

Abstract The Fukushima Daiichi accident resulted in the release of a novel form of
radioactive Cs contamination into the environment, called Cs-bearing microparticles …
