Abstract
The dose calculations were carried out using environmental montoring data around Karlsruhe Nuclear Research Center(KfK). Ingestion of plant foods was the most important pathway, and the K-40 and Pb-210 natural radioisotopes in food were the most effective radiation source to man. The dose received from artificial nuclides were mostly emitted by gamma irradiation of Cs-134 and Cs-137 deposited on the ground. The effective dose equivalent in the KfK environment was far less than the dose equivalent limit recommended by ICRP.
Kalsruhe원자력 연구소(KfK) 주변의 방사능 측정자료로부터 피폭선량을 계산하였다. 식물성 식품의 섭취가 가장 중요한 피폭 경로였고, 식품중의 자연방사성 동위원소인 K-40 과 Pb-210이 주요 피폭원이었다. 인공방사능에의한 피폭은 대부분 지표에 침척된 Cs-134 와 Cs-137으로부터 방출되는 감마선 때문이었다. KfK주변환경에서의 유효선량당량은 ICRP의 권고제한치보다 훨씬 적은 값이었다.
