Radon Emanation Phenomena: A Probabilistic Basis to Estimate Radon Emanation Coefficients Based on Its Zigzag Travel [PDF]
Previous theoretical approaches based on mathematical models by other researchers to the subject of radon emanation assumed straight linear travel of radon generated in grains constituting rocks or soils. However, it is difficult for these approaches to explain high radon emanation coefficients for rocks or soils without the introduction of the ideas ...

The Global Electric Circuit and Global Seismicity
Basing on the catalogue of earthquakes with a magnitude of M ≥ 4.5 for the period 1973–2017, a UT variation with an amplitude of ~10% in the number of earthquakes is revealed and compared with a UT variation in the ionospheric potential (IP) with an ...

Environmental impacts of waste produced from processing of different uraniferous rock samples
Radon exhalation rates from five studied laboratory waste samples resulted from five different sedimentary rock types named sandy dolostone, siltstone –two samples-, marly claystone and black shale were measured using ‘‘Sealed Can technique”. These rates

High Radon Emanation Coefficients of Porous Matters Produced through Filtration and Precipitation [PDF]
Previous theoretical predictions of high radon emanation coefficients were verified in experiments using porous matters artificially produced through filtration and precipitation. Such porous matters were prepared by replicating uranium-bearing waste generating processes used in fuel fabrication facilities in Japan except that radium was employed ...
