Abstract
Radiocesium depth profiles in Fukushima soil cores were derived with an unfolding method by using an imaging plate with a response matrix for 134Cs, 137Cs, and 40K radionuclides calculated by a PHITS simulation. The unfolded depth profiles were validated by comparison with profiles measured with a Ge detector. The unfolded depth profiles agreed well with those measured by the Ge detector. The depth profiles obtained were obtained with a 1â¯mm depth bin width and are useful for estimating the migration of radiocesium in soil.
