222Rn emanation measurements for the XENON1T experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The selection of low-radioactive construction materials is of utmost importance for the success of low-energy rare event search experiments. Besides radioactive contaminants in the bulk, the emanation of radioactive radon atoms from material surfaces ...

Thoron emanation and exhalation of Slovenian soils determined by a PIC detector-equipped radon monitor

open access: yesNukleonika, 2016
The health risk from thoron (Rn-220) is usually ignored owing to its short half-life (55.6 s), but the generated thoron decay products can cause a significant dose contribution.

Emanation

open access: yes, 2014
This chapter evaluates the application of the Neoplatonic idea of emanation, as expounded by Maimonides himself in The Guide of the Perplexed, to the understanding of the structure of Mishneh torah. The first ten books are arranged according to a hierarchy of value, corresponding to the hierarchy of the successive levels of hypostases in the Plotinian ...

Anomalous radon emanation linked to preseismic electromagnetic phenomena [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2007
Anomalous emanation of radon (<sup>222</sup>Rn) was observed preceding large earthquakes and is considered to be linked to preseismic electromagnetic phenomena (e.g.

Approximate sequential Bayesian filtering to estimate 222Rn emanation from 226Ra sources using spectral time series [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sensors and Sensor Systems, 2023
A new approach to assess the emanation of 222Rn from 226Ra sources based on γ-ray spectrometric measurements is presented. While previous methods have resorted to steady-state treatment of the system, the method presented incorporates well-known ...
