A significant accident occurred. The ramifications are that it is from a fresh fissioning source, because the I-131 half life is 8 days.....it goes away fast. What is not said that if partiuclate iodine is detected, as it has been, that all the usual suspects are also released
1) Stontium
2) Plutonium
3) Cesium, and more.
They release location is "a mystery" however, using the radiation dispersion programs like "speedi" that used for Fukushima (and covered up the results, and didn't release the KI protection pills) would provide evidence of location. Simply run the program in reverse mode and the source should be obvious.
If it was Russia, they would definitely be reporting the "reverse speedi" results. Unless of course "they" don't want the public to know that they can pinpoint a radiation release source with the speedi software. Look at the average I-131 around the highly polluting Oak Ridge back in the day, note those are picocuries.
The worst release in Europe, NOW, is 2500 times worse that the worst release from Oak Ridge.

Hello - just a quick thank you for all the good work you do and the useful information you bring to light. I have followed your blog for a number of years now and can honestly say that I am more knowledgeable because of your efforts. Thank you and please continue. Pat
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat, glad someone notices and finds it useful
DeleteYeah Stock, Good work as always. Have you had any run ins with the nuke pimps lately. You know atomic rabbit with a habit, Sam the Gimp Gilman, Michael the Maniac Man and his crew?
ReplyDeleteSlamming solar right now, the nuke pimps will have to wait for their b-slappings.
DeleteIn your picture I-131 have Micro Becquerel/cubicmeter unit, you mistake convert Becquerel(Bq) unit to Curie (Ci).
ReplyDeleteNote: 1 Bq = 27 pCi
1 Ci = 37 GBq = 37000 MBq
Good catch! sorry rushing around with solar and screwing up the conversion, will fix later. stock out
Deleteenenews is now blocked in Canada. March 3 2017.
ReplyDeleteno longer blocked.
DeleteCanada is so crashed and burnt, it make the UK look like fresh bread.
DeleteYoull probably find that level of iodine if confirmed wont lead to any appreciable condequence, unless you use flawed LNT. And whats the deal calling out Oak Ridge? You know the guys (plural) that have discredited you were there. Best nuclear brainpower in the world. They held a seminar and got more recruits to flummox you a couple years ago. A bunch of those kids got banned from enenews. Several went on to study nuclear. So in a way you helped bring more young people to nuckear.
ReplyDeleteI was going to respond to your tripe, but just enjoyed the good belly laugh and that was enough.
