Radioactive Contaminants Characterization

Lead Institution: 
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator: 
James McKinley
Project ID: 
48649
Abstract: 

Synthesis of radioactive components of nuclear weapons generated abundant contaminant components, which were purposefully or accidentally disseminated into the terrestrial environment. This project will collect related environmental samples and characterize them using facilities within EMSL and the EMSL radiological annex.
