Using a portable gamma-ray spectrometer to estimate the external exposure for a subway passenger
The subway (metro) is a popular form of public transportation system in many large cities. While in the subway territory (one of the locations in the city), a passenger is inevitably exposed to external irradiation from natural (terrigenous) sources of ...

Seasonal variations of ambient dose equivalent rate on the streets of Saint Petersburg
The gamma dose rate in air at any given outdoor location is not constant throughout the year. These fluctuations of the dose rate should be taking into account when assessing external radiation dose to humans.
