A powerful 7.3 magnitude earthquake shook off the coast of Fukushima in northern Japan, triggering a tsunami advisory.

A group of French nuclear physicists tested 18 bottles of California's ros and cabernet sauvignon and found that the wines produced after the disaster had increased levels of a man-made radioactive particle.

Beneath the elegant curves of the roof on the Seirinji Buddhist temple in Japan's Fukushima region hangs an unlikely adornment: a Geiger counter collecting real-time radiation readings.

Uranium and other radioactive materials, such as caesium and technetium, have been found in tiny particles released from the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors.

Lethal levels of radiation have been detected at Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant, seven years after it was destroyed by an earthquake and tsunami. The Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco), which operated the complex and is now responsible for it

The Japanese government and companies used radiation-hardened machines to search for the fuel that escaped the plants ruined reactors.

AN EARTHQUAKE has struck off the coast of Japan near the Fukushima power plant.

A large number of fission products were released and transported worldwide. We estimate that around 23% of the released 137Cs remained into Japan, while 76% deposited in the oceans. Around 163 TBq deposited over North America, among which 95 TBq over USA, 40 TBq over Canada and 5 TBq over

EVERYBODY on Earth was dealt a dose of radiation by the Fukushima triple nuclear meltdown, a shock new study has revealed.

“More than 80 per cent of the radiation was deposited in the ocean and poles, so I think the global population got the least exposure,” Evangeliou told the annual meeting of the European Geosciences Union in Vienna, Austria, last month. He has estimated the dose that most individuals received to be

More evidence of core meltdowns emerges at the Fukushima No. 1 plant as radiation hits an unimaginable 530 sieverts and holes are found directly beneath a pressure vessel. The post Highest radiation reading since 3/11 detected at Fukushima No. 1 reactor a
