Samples from Three Mile Island Unit 2 (TMI-2) ranging from auxiliary building atmosphere to core debris were collected and analyzed using a variety of techniques. Many of the samples had to be handled remotely, and standard laboratory analytical techniques were modified to accommodate the extremely high radiation fields. The TMI-2 samples presented unique problems with sampling and the laboratory analysis of numerous sample types.
