| dc.description | The nuclear power station operating at Chernobyl, just north of Kiev in the Ukraine, USSR, contains four RBMK reactors operating at 1000 MW each. The RBMK reactor is a graphite moderated light water cooled reactor using low enriched uranium fuel. Early on Saturday 26 April 1986 a serious accident occurred to one of the four reactors resulting in the release of radioactive material, some of which was carried by the wind northwards across Poland and Scandinavia. The Ursuline Convent School at Westgate-on-Sea is situated in a small seaside town on the North Kent coast. On 30 April the background count was measured in the physics laboratory of the school using a Mullard ZP1481 Geiger-Muller tube in conjunction with a Panax scaler. |
