Dear Dr. Levine,

l g

Please forgive me for writing the first letter to

[

you suddenly.

It is very unhappy that the accident was happened in the Three Miles Island Nuclear Power Plant.

l Acording to newspapers and co=ents of the Science and

}

Technology Agency in Japan, the coating pypes of nuclear

,1 fuel poles was partly broken and fishon products was partly celted in the first cooling water and hydrogen gas was

)

generated.

Then the situation became very dangerous l

tecause hydrogen gas =ight explode or nuclear fuel =ight fuse.

?.ut such the warst case was avoided and the situation 5

tended to good.

I have investigated the radioactivities surrounding area of the nuclear power plant and that genersted by ata=ic tou=b experiments.

Then, I have been interested in not only enviro = ental radioactivity but also nuclear reac tor,however, Inave a little knowiecgt c: reactor.

I think that this accident is very i=portant and has the necessity for =e to know its progress and its cause etc.

In detail.

Further, with these knowledge I will reconsider the =ethods how to investigate the radioactivities surrounding the plant, especialy in e=er6ency.
