Dataset on Cs-137 in waters surrounding Taiwan [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2023 The Fukushima accident released short-lived Cs-134 and longer-lived Cs-137 to the ocean. The amount, although substantial, is much less than that produced during the atomic bomb tests 60 yrs ago.

Recovery of Cs-137 from electric arc furnace dust by lixiviation
Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering, 2022 An orphan radioactive source of Cs-137 was inadvertently melted in an electric arc furnace, generating large volumes of electric arc furnace dusts contaminated with Cs-137 (137Cs-EAFD). This work proposes the Cs-137 recovery from 137Cs-EAFD by applying a

Gold Nanoparticles Enhancing Generation of ROS for Cs-137 Radiotherapy. [PDF]
Nanoscale Res Lett, 2022 AbstractRadiotherapy is an important modality for the treatment of cancer, e.g., X-ray, Cs-137 γ-ray (peak energy: 662 keV). An important therapy pathway of radiation is to generate the double strand breaks of DNA to prohibit the proliferation of cancer cells.

Cs-137 in the natural environment of the Gorce Mountains (Poland). [PDF]
J Radioanal Nucl Chem, 2014 Concentration of activity of Cs-137 and its spatial distribution in soils and lichen Hypogymnia physodes were determined in the Gorce Mts. (several hundred km2) in S Poland. The authors distinguished two areas of the Gorce Mts. on the basis of markedly different Cs-137 depositions, whose respective average values are 4.4 and 9.9 kBq/m2 as at 1st July ...

Regional distribution and isotope ratios of radiocesium from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station and global fallout in Tokai-mura [PDF]
Scientific ReportsDue to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS), radiocesium such as 134 Cs, 135 Cs, and 137 Cs was dispersed over a wide area of eastern Japan and mixed with radiocesium from global fallout.

Chronic Cs-137 incorporation in children's organs
Swiss Medical Weekly, 2003 In Belarus's Gomel region, which was heavily contaminated by fallout from the Chernobyl disaster, we have studied the evolution of the Cs-137 load in the organisms of the rural population, in particular children, since 1990. Children have a higher average burden of Cs-137 compared with that of adults living in the same community. We measured the Cs-137

Variation in Atmospheric 137Cs and the Carriers in Aerosol Samples Obtained from a Heavily Contaminated Area of Fukushima Prefecture [PDF]
ToxicsEven a decade after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident on 11 March 2011, fluctuations in atmospheric 137Cs were still observed, and explanations for the fluctuations and their carriers remained elusive.

Revision of the dosimetric parameters of the CSM11 LDR Cs-137 source. [PDF]
J Contemp Brachytherapy, 2011 The clinical use of brachytherapy sources requires the existence of dosimetric data with enough of quality for the proper application of treatments in clinical practice. It has been found that the published data for the low dose rate CSM11 Cs-137 source lacks of smoothness in some regions because the data are too noisy. The purpose of this study was to
