Pollution Monitoring Section, Bhabha Atomic Research Center, 400 085, Bombay, India aut Comparison of radionuclides levels from the Chernobyl reactor accident and from global fallout [Elektronische Daten] [U. Mishra] Studies on radioactive fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests have been carried out at this laboratory since the mid-fifties. The data thus generated on the levels and composition of radioactive fallout in India has been published periodically. Consequent to the Chernobyl reactor accident in the USSR in April 1986, similar studies were carried out. A number of fairly active samples were collected from commercial aircraft which had flown over the USSR soon after the accident. Even though the levels of fallout from the Chernobyl reactor accident observed in India were not significant from a health hazard view point, the studies provided detailed information on differences in the composition of fallout from the accident and long term radiation exposures likely to accrue from the Chernobyl fallout as opposed to global fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests. This paper presents the results and their interpretation on the above aspects.
