Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
This paper firstly analyzed the distribution of nuclear technology application units and the radiation environmental situation in Shanghai. On this basis, several methods including literature review, consultation from experts and experience analysis were adopted to identify and assess ionizing radiation risk in Shanghai. The results indicated that we should pay more attention to radiation accident and nuclear terrorism, as well as the accidents of radioactive sources lost/stolen which were the most serious one among 18 kinds of radiation risk. Furthermore, hazards of nuclear and radiological emergencies were discussed and relative countermeasures were put forward in the end.
