Observation of periodic fluctuations in the dose rate of gamma-radiation in the Chornobyl exclusion zone [PDF]
The structure of signals from detectors for monitoring the gamma-background around the Chornobyl NPP was considered. It is shown that they are not random, they contain certain regular components.

Experimental approach for understanding the dynamic behaviors of bentonite buffer piping erosion
In Japan, as in other countries, bentonite-based buffer materials are expected to play roles in reducing stress from rock masses and mitigating nuclide migration in the geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste.
