Résumé
Radioactive substances released during the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS) were deposited on various equipment and building structures. During decommissioning, an investigation of the radioactive substances deposited inside the contaminated equipment and structures can provide information regarding the cause and progression of the accident. This study introduces a quantitative evaluation method for the amount of radioactivity. In this method, a Compton camera, a type of gamma-ray imager, is used to investigate the deposition and contamination level of radioactive substances on contaminated objects. Multiple
