After the nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in March 2011, the Japan Atomic Energy Agency has newly set up a laboratory for radioactivity analysis in Fukushima. At the laboratory, radioactivity concentrations of environmental samples such as soil, water, dust filter, plant, etc., approximately 1,000 samples in a month, are measured with high-resolution -ray spectrometry systems. The systems employ n-type HPGe detectors from Ortec. Since September 2012, characterization and upgrade of the systems have been performed aimed at enhancing reliability of analysis and convenience of customers. Resolving both systematic and technical issues, the laboratory has been accredited the ISO/IEC 17025 standard as a testing laboratory for radioactivity analysis.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：10.62(Chemistry, Physical)Following the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) accident, large-scale radiation monitoring and environmental clean-up activities have been conducted throughout the Fukushima region. Outside air temperatures there reach 40
C in summer and -20C in winter, which are beyond the quoted range of many radiation survey instruments. For the purpose, temperature performances of four types of portable Japanese survey instruments which are widely used in Fukushima were experimentally investigated with a temperature-controlled chamber.

After the TEPCO Fukushima Dai-ichi NPP accident, the radiation monitoring and clean-up activities have been carrying out throughout Fukushima region. In winter, outside air temperature at the fields reaches as low as minus 20 C, which is not supposed for the use of radiation survey meters. For the purpose, temperature characteristics of several types of Japanese radiation survey meters were experimentally investigated by using a temperature-controlled chamber.
