1983 Buenos Aires Argentina, Centro Atomico Constituyentes Nuclear Reactor Melt Down

"23 September 1983 Centro Atomico Constituyentes An operator at the RA-2 research reactor in Buenos Aires, Argentina received a fatal radiation dose of 3,700 rads (37 Gy) while changing the fuel rod configuration with moderating water in the reactor. Two others were injured." [23][24]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticality_accident

"On Friday afternoon September 23, 1983, a modification of the core configuration had been scheduled so that an experiment using the pulsed source technique could be conducted. Figure 3A shows the initial core configuration and Figure 3B shows the configuration as it was to be modified. The operating procedure requires the complete removal of the moderator. However, this was only partially done. A short time afterwards, when the exchange operations were being carried out, a criticality excursion occurred. The operator, who was the only person present in the containment, was fatally exposed; other persons, who were in the control room and other adjacent premises were exposed, but to a much lesser degree."
