Isotopic analysis of the particle


A 1 µCi hot particle was removed from a worker's forearm using a tape press. An isotopic analysis of the particle is in the table below. What was the beta dose, in Gy and rads, to 1 cm^2 of skin? Program an MS-Excel spreadsheet for your calculation.

Isotope Cr-51 with fraction of Total Activity of 0.483

Isotope Mn-54 with fraction of Total Activity of 0.004

Isotope Co-57 with fraction of Total Activity of 0.002

Isotope Co-58 with fraction of Total Activity of 0.432

Isotope Fe-59 with fraction of Total Activity of 0.005

Isotope Co-60 with fraction of Total Activity of 0.071

Isotope Nb-95 with fraction of Total Activity of 0.003
