A fast method for the determination of 210Pb by LSC in liquid samples
210Pb is a naturally occurring radionuclide, widely distributed on the earth´s surface and can be incorporated by humans through food chain or directly by ingestion or inhalation in situations of occupational or accidental exposures.

On the relativistic origin of the kink effect in the chain of Pb isotopes [PDF]
We investigate the origin of the kink effect (KE) in the relativistic mean field theory by transforming the single-particle Dirac equation into a Schrodinger-like equation.

The performance of thin NaI(Tl) scintillator plate for dark matter search
A thin (0.05cm) and wide area (5cmX5cm) NaI(Tl) scintillator was developed. The performance of the thin NaI(Tl) plate, energy resolution, single photoelectron energy and position sensitivity were tested.

Potential of Soils Natural Sorbents for Environmental Decontamination From 137Cs
ABSTRACT This study addresses the existing research gap concerning the lack of integrated data on the role of in situ soil components in the long‐term fixation of 137Cs under natural, protected, and non‐agricultural conditions. The contamination of ecosystems by radioactive isotopes, particularly 137Cs, represents a considerable environmental hazard ...

A multi-year study of radioactivity in surface air and its relation to climate variables in Belgrade, Serbia [PDF]
Activities of 7Be and 210Pb were monitored in surface air in Belgrade, Serbia, from 2004 to 2012. The measurements were taken from two locations, in an open field of a city suburb and in the central city area.
