Abstract

•Daily and weekly samples were analyzed by the gamma-ray spectrometry using different HPGe detectors and measuring geometries.•Corrections of 8–12% for the true coincidence-summing in 134Cs decay were applied.•The activity ratio 134Cs/137Cs was found to be in the range 0.99–1.09.•This result is consistent with published data on Fukushima radioactive release.

Two aerosol sampling stations in Lithuania were simultaneously used for assessing consequences of the accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant. The maximum activity concentrations of 129mTe, 131I, 134Cs and 137Cs were 0.59±0.06, 3.5±0.3, 0.90±0.08, 0.90±0.07 mBq m−3 at station #1 in Vilnius, and 0.29±0.03, 1.0±0.1, 0.41±0.04, 0.41±0.04 mBq m−3 at station #2 in northeastern part of Lithuania, respectively.
