We evaluated a CXRD and visualized the distribution of radioactivity in the contaminated area near the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power station, where the ambient dose equivalent rate was 2.1 μSv/h at 1 m above ground level. We found a good correlation between the characteristic X-ray fluxes and the distribution of radioactive contaminants with a 0.823 Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient.}, pages = {26--30}, title = {Characteristic X-ray detector: in-situ imaging of radioactive contaminant distribution}, volume = {82}, year = {2015} }
