Abstract:
The damages come from exposing to radioactive radiation are severely huge and the injury diagnosis known after suffering from dose of one of radioactive elements. Thus field detection of radioactivity is very necessary to ensure the civilians regions are without radioactive pollution that results from natural disaster or human’s wars. In this study, the researchers are trying to measure the radioactivite pollution in Iraq through the war against ”Iraq and Sham Islamic State“ ISIS (The Non-Islamic) because these land are controlled by ISIS and they used bombs and explosives that might be polluted or have additives of radioactive element. The location of this study is between Samarra governorate through cities that leading to Allas oil fields in the length line (51o 43’17”) and width line (11°34’15”) to (59o 43’47”) and (57°34’23”), after measuring along this road we found the radioactivity is in the range 0.438-1.1388 ?Sev/year and these values are within the permitted dose as reported by World Health Organization (WHO) which is equal to 3 mSev/year. The second area under study was the road of Samara to Mosel governorate reaching Tal Afar city at the Syrian borderlines in the length line 50°34’52”-26°42’37” and width line 11°34’46”-22°36’27” and the dose range was 0.516-1.883 ?Sev/year. These result are field measured, indicate that there is no possibility of radioactive pollution in the liberated regions in Iraq through the war against ISIS.
