Abstract
Specific modification of hot particles found in flood-land soils of the Yenisei River was studied. In contrast to the known hot particles (hot particles of the first kind), newly found hot particles are referred to as hot particles of the second kind. Abundance, radionuclide composition, and other characteristics of hot particles of the first and second kinds are compared.
