The atmospheric behavior of 7 Be-aerosols in association with atmospheric pollutants was studied by using 1-ACFM Andersen type cascade impactors. The activity of 7 Be, a radionuclide of cosmogenic origin, determined by gamma-ray spectrometry (Eγ = 0.477 MeV), was largely associated with submicron aerosol particles in the accumulation mode (0.4– 2.0 μm).
