Abstract: Between 1946 and 1958, the United States conducted 23 nuclear
tests at the Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands.
The single largest
detonation was the Bravo test, which resulted in extensive radioactive
contamination of a number of islands and prevented the timely
resettlement of the native population. Since 1958, many studies have
been conducted to assess clean up options and the internal and external
radiation doses the Bikinians would likely receive, should they
resettle the islands. Although the external dose rates from ..beta..
and ..gamma.. radiation have been previously determined by aerial and
ground measurement techniques, technical constraints limited the
assessment of external ..beta.. dose rates from the Cs-137 and
Sr-90/Y-90 contamination on the islands.
Now, because of the recent
development of very thin thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs), these
external ..beta.. dose rates can be measured.
