Regarding the possible impact of forest fires on the radioactive pollution of groundwater in the chornobyl exclusion zone [PDF]
Wood contamination in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ) with 137Cs and 90Sr reaches tens of kBq/kg. Fires are natural disasters that fundamentally alter the forest ecosystem.

Pure 90Sr External Bremsstrahlung Spectra
Beta particles emitted from a 90Sr/90Y source have two different end point energies; 546 keV for 90Sr and 2274 keV for 90Y. The external bremsstrahlung (EB) photons produced by the complete absorption of 90Sr/90Y betas stopped in thick targets will ...

Initial Strontium-90 concentrations in ocean sediment from the northern Marshall Islands
The United States detonated 67 nuclear weapons in the Marshall Islands from 1946 to 1958. While there has been significant study of the aftereffects of these explosions over the decades that followed, few values of strontium-90 (90Sr) contamination have ...
