Abstract

At the 2018 FIFA World Cup held in our country, great attention was paid to ensuring radiation safety. When holding mass events, there are risks of terrorist attacks that need to be taken into account. Therefore, the use of radiation monitoring systems during this period is primarily aimed at countering radiation terrorism. This article reviews the equipment and personnel of the Rospotrebnadzor radiation control laboratories in the regions of the Russian Federation that participated in the 2018 FIFA World Cup for readiness to perform the task of responding to cases of activation of radiation control systems. In addition, a comparative description of the radiation monitoring systems used during the 2018 FIFA World Cup and the experience of their operation at pedestrian inspection points located on the border of the security perimeter of stadiums are provided.
