dc.description.abstract | Frequent monitoring of ocean radiation level in desired sites is required to manage the safety of nuclear power plant operation and rapidly deal with radiation discharge into the ocean. A typical method to measure ocean radiation is to analyze the sampled sea water or sediments in the laboratory [1-2]. However, this method is slow, bulky, and only applicable to restricted ocean sites. We are developing a novel in-situ ocean radiation monitoring system that features real-time detection of ocean radiation level based on remote ultra-high frequency communication. For gamma-ray detection, we selected Gadolinium Aluminum Gallium Garnet (GAGG) crystal because GAGG features excellent energy resolution, non-hygroscopic property, and no intrinsic activity [3]. Considering the challenge in gamma-ray detection efficiency due to substantial attenuation by water, a large-sized GAGG crystal was used. We first calibrated the gamma-ray detector consisted of GAGG crystal and silicon multiplier (SiPM). After the calibration, we conducted a water tank experiment of the system to evaluate the feasibility of the detector for ocean radiation monitoring system, targeting Cs-137 detection. | - |
