Timeline of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster pumps could be retrofitted to deliver concrete for that purpose. Prior to the elevation to level 7 by the Japanese authorities James Acton, Associate of the Nuclear Policy Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, was of the opinion that "Fukushima is not the worst nuclear accident ever but it is the most complicated and the most dramatic, was a crisis that played out in real time on TV. Chernobyl did not." A survey of radiation in seawater outside unit 2 shows radioactive isotope concentrations (iodine-131, caesium-134 and caesium-137) falling for the third consecutive day since the leak was
Isotopes of caesium into solution and is returned to the surface of the earth as a component of radioactive fallout. Once caesium enters the ground water, it is deposited on soil surfaces and removed from the landscape primarily by particle transport. As a result, the input function of these isotopes can be estimated as a function of time. Caesium-131, introduced in 2004 for brachytherapy, has a half-life of 9.7 days and 30.4 keV energy. Caesium-133 is the only stable isotope of caesium. The second is defined by a specific caesium-133 transition. Since 1967, the official definition of a second is 9,192,631,770 cycles of
