Assessment of air pollution distribution from radioactive sources and its impact on human health

Abstract

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. The determination of the dispersion parameters used in the Gaussian model will be carried out using the Pasquill-Gifford and Briggs’ method. Based on calculated concentrations of radionuclides, their impact on human health will be analyzed.
