An advanced blind-tube monitoring instrument to improve the characterization of subsurface radioactive plumes

This research presents a design of a resilient blind-tube radiometric logging probe, which satisfies key, operational site constraints, for direct in-situ characterization of subsurface radioactivity, particularly caesium-137 and strontium-90. The probe comprises a commercially-available Ø10 mm × 9....
