I am sad to say that I recently discovered an error in the code used to process our radiation measurements in Chernobyl. This has since been corrected and a corrigendum has been published on the original article. Please see the following link. frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 6 and Figure 7 as published. The published dose-rates are incorrect due to a typing error within the c...

I can only apologise for the error, which was my own and was merely a typo in the code. I do feel however that it is important that these errors are made public in the interest of scientific integrity. If you already downloaded the article, please download it again.

@DrKieranWood @proftbs @SWNuclearHub
For anyone starting a PhD in the coming days or months, it will do you well to read this thread. My PhD has flipped and flopped and I never felt like I had a definite end goal until very recently (and I'll be starting to write up soon!). Looking after yourself is the priority!

It's a lovely day for #UAS radiation surveys down in Cornwall. Today's location is Wheal Owles mine (aka Poldark's Wheal Leisure). @NCNRobotics

Congratulations to my good friend Lewis and the rest of the team at Jelly Drops for getting their wonderful product to this stage. It's a beautifully simple solution that can help the lives of many. Good luck for the rest of the development!

It has been an extremely busy few months for us behind the scenes. Jelly Drops are in the final stages of product development and the team will soon be moving to a factory site ready for mass production and launch later this year.
Case study: Innovative research from @UniBrisPhysics @UoBrisIAC has developed diamond detectors to provide real-time dose rate measurements remotely from highly radiaoctive areas. Read more: southwestnuclearhub.ac.uk/20…
