AbstractThe objective of the work is to establish a criteria and methodology to determine safe distances in the case of emergency situations involving radioactive or nuclear material. The current radiological/nuclear situation in the Republic of Chile is taken as a basis; however, the results presented here allow to adapt them to the real radiological context existing in any country.
