Abstract
There has been an increase in the activities of naval nuclear-powered vessels in the High North and vessels carrying radioactive waste along the Norwegian coastline. Previously, there have been incidents with such vessels in the sea area near Norway, which also require emergency handling from the Norwegian authorities. This article gives some examples of historical events that have been particularly interesting. The incidents include reactor or cooling system failures, fires and the actions of crews.
期刊介绍:
Radiation Protection Dosimetry covers all aspects of personal and environmental dosimetry and monitoring, for both ionising and non-ionising radiations. This includes biological aspects, physical concepts, biophysical dosimetry, external and internal personal dosimetry and monitoring, environmental and workplace monitoring, accident dosimetry, and dosimetry related to the protection of patients. Particular emphasis is placed on papers covering the fundamentals of dosimetry; units, radiation quantities and conversion factors. Papers covering archaeological dating are included only if the fundamental measurement method or technique, such as thermoluminescence, has direct application to personal dosimetry measurements. Papers covering the dosimetric aspects of radon or other naturally occurring radioactive materials and low level radiation are included. Animal experiments and ecological sample measurements are not included unless there is a significant relevant content reason.
