Abstract

As a consequence of the reactor-accident of Chernobyl on Tuesday 29 April 1986 the environmental radioactivity in Austria increased for above the level recorded before. Depending on the amount of precipitation the deposition of radioactive fallout showed great differences. Many water samples /rain water, lake water, swimming pool water, drinking water, underground water/ collected /during period of April 29 to May 30/ from Vienna, Lower Austria and Steiermark were analyzed for⁹⁰Sr. The following concentrations in /nCi 1^–1/ of⁹⁰Sr was found: 8.69±2.3 for rain water, 0.09±0.12 for lake water, 0.08–0.18 for swimming pool, 0.04–0.13 for drinking water, 0.07–0.2 for underground water. The⁹⁰Sr concentration was not higher than the maximal permissible /0.004–0.4 nCi 1^–1/ except for rain water.
