Innovative methods for the location of a radioactive pollutant source in air
LAUREA MAGISTRALE---This work deals with modeling and prediction of emissions of gaseous or colloidal radioactive pollutants in air, coming from different sources close to the ground such as: the operation of a nuclear reactor and nuclear facilities such

Estimating and visualising imprecision in radiological emergency response assessments [PDF]
After an accidental release of radioactivity to atmosphere, modelling assessments are needed to predict what the contamination levels are likely to be and what measures need to be taken to protect human health.

Assessment of air pollution distribution from radioactive sources and its impact on human health [PDF]
The paper assesses the concentration of gas aerosols produced as a result of radioactive sources emission. A Gaussian diffusion model is used for calculation of the particle concentration, and the Cs137 isotope is taken as an example of the particles.
