Natural Radioactivity in Bananas
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008The content of 40K natural radionuclide in bananas (Musa sapientum) from the Vale do Ribeira region, Sao Paulo, Brazil, has been measured. We have collected several samples of bananas prata and nanica, its peels, leaves, and also different soils where the banana tree was planted, such as soil with a standard amount of fertilizer, the fertilizer itself ...

Radioactivity, artificial and natural
Electrical Engineering, 1938In a very few years after its discovery in 1898, radioactivity became and has ever since remained the most celebrated subdivision of modern physics. In addition to substances naturally radioactive, such as radium, others may be made so artificially; in fact, of all the known elements, hydrogen alone remains the only one of which a radioactive type has ...

Natural Radioactivity of Rhenium
Physical Review, 1954An attempt to confirm the reported $K$ capture activity of ${\mathrm{Os}}^{187}$, using Os${\mathrm{O}}_{4}$ mixed with argon as the counter gas, failed to reveal any activity corresponding to a half-life of less than ${5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}10}^{11}$ years.

Natural Radioactivity in Monitoring Waste Disposals
Physica Scripta, 2001Monitoring large (underwater) surfaces, with strongly varying composition, requires a sampling density, exceeding the capabilities of standard techniques. These techniques involve sample collection and a number of treatments and measurements in laboratory; both steps are laborious, tedious and costly. This paper shows that a trailing detector system of

Technologically enhanced naturally occurring radioactive materials
Clinical Toxicology, 2009Naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) are ubiquitous throughout the earth's crust. Human manipulation of NORM for economic ends, such as mining, ore processing, fossil fuel extraction, and commercial aviation, may lead to what is known as "technologically enhanced naturally occurring radioactive materials," often called TENORM. The existence

Natural radioactivity in Algerian building materials
Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 2001Samples of natural and manufactured building materials collected from Algiers have been analysed for 226Ra, 232Th and 40K using a high-resolution HPGe gamma-spectrometry system. The specific concentrations for 226Ra, 232Th and 40K, from the selected building materials, ranged from (12-65 Bq kg(-1)), (7-51 B qkg(-1)) and (36-675 Bq kg(-1)), respectively.
