Global risk of radioactive fallout after major nuclear reactor accidents [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2012
Major reactor accidents of nuclear power plants are rare, yet the consequences are catastrophic. But what is meant by "rare"? And what can be learned from the Chernobyl and Fukushima incidents?
