Investigation of radiation formation (plasmoid) in the air environment by radar method

The expediency of using the radar method for detecting radiation contamination at long distances is substantiated in this article. The design of a radar for the detecting of small radioactive formations in the air at the long distances is developed. The dependence of the reflection coefficient of microwave radiation on the wavelength for determining the level of radioactive radiation is established. The investigation results of radioactive contamination in the atmosphere are presented.
