A century of oil and gas exploration in Albania: assessment of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORMs)

open access: yes, 2015
Because potential Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORMs) generated from oil and gas extractions in Albania have been disposed without regulatory criteria in many decades, an extensive survey in one of the most productive regions (Vlora-Elbasan)

226Ra in drinking water in the Republic of Croatia.

open access: yesArhiv za higijenu rada i toksikologiju, 1994
Zbog svoje izuzetne radiotoksičnosti, 226Ra u pitkoj vodi može izravno utjecati na ljudsko zdravlje. U radu je opisano istraživanje specifične aktivnosti 226Ra u pitkoj vodi Hrvatske, i to: u uzorcima bunarskih voda, uzorcima vodovodnih voda u nekoliko gradova Hrvatske i u mineralnim vodama.

Pilot study of 222Rn and 226Ra activity concentrations in groundwaters of Roztocze region, Poland

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2018
Authors selected 5 intakes of groundwaters outflowing from carbonate rocks in Roztocze region in Poland and measured activity concentrations of 222Rn and 222Ra. The average values of 222Rn and 226Ra activity concentrations were: 5.3 (min. 2.0, max.

Bremsstrahlung in Alpha-Decay

open access: yes, 1998
We present the first fully quantum mechanical calculation of photon radiation accompanying charged particle decay from a barrier resonance. The soft-photon limit agrees with the classical results, but differences appear at next-to-leading-order.

Facts, Values and Quanta

open access: yes, 2004
Quantum mechanics is a fundamentally probabilistic theory (at least so far as the empirical predictions are concerned). It follows that, if one wants to properly understand quantum mechanics, it is essential to clearly understand the meaning of ...

Radionuclide concentration in cabbage samples due to gamma radiation in Samsun, Turkey

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
Establishing of radioactivity planes in foodstuff has emphasis because it allows the evaluation of population exposure to radiation by take nourishment. In this paper, the activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th, 40K and 137Cs were determined in cabbage ...

Evaluation of the Uncertainty Budget for 226Ra Analysis in Water Samples

open access: yesActa Chimica Slovenica, 2013
An alpha spectrometric method for the rapid determination of 226Ra isotope in water samples is presented. The method is based on the co-precipitation of (Ba)(Ra)SO4 for source preparation.

Radioecology studies in the vicinity of a closed uranium mine

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
Although the influential area of the former uranium mine at Zirovski vrh, Slovenia has been under continuous radiological monitoring, more detailed radioecology studies, focused on assessing mobility and bioavailability of deposited radionuclides, were ...

226Ra removal processes in Croatian water facilities.

open access: yesArhiv za higijenu rada i toksikologiju, 2006
Today, bottled and tap drinking water mainly originates from underground waters which might contain considerable amounts of naturally occurring radionuclides. One of the most toxic radionuclide in drinking water is 226Ra. Following the metabolism of calcium, it could be deposited into the bone where, in sufficient amount, it could cause bone sarcoma ...

Gamma-Ray Measurements of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials in Sludge, Scale and Well Cores of the Oil Industry in Southern Iraq

open access: yesWalailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2013
Radioactivity of nuclides 238U, 226Ra, 232Th and 40K was measured in soil by γ-ray spectrometry using a NaI (Li) detector. A criterion was set in order to analyze sludge samples from oil fields and oil well-cores in southern Basrah, in the Iraq oil ...
