Identification of hazards for water environment in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin caused by the discharge of salt mine water containing particularly harmful substances and radionuclides

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Mining, 2015
The Upper Silesian urban-industrial agglomeration is one of the most industrialized areas in Europe. The intense industrialization should be attributed mostly to the presence of coal and other minerals deposits and its extraction.

Isostasy and Radioactivity [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1915
Introductory It is the purpose of this paper to point out some apparent discrepancies between the observations of geodesists on isostasy and the inferences which some radiologists have drawn as to the great age of certain specimens of minerals. It seems well to begin by reviewing the results of isostatic investigations, in order to estimate the degree

Galactic Chemical Evolution of Radioactive Isotopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The presence of short-lived ($\sim$\,Myr) radioactive isotopes in meteoritic inclusions at the time of their formation represents a unique opportunity to study the circumstances that led to the formation of the Solar System. To interpret these observations we need to calculate the evolution of radioactive-to-stable isotopic ratios in the Galaxy.

A Study on Radiation Hazard of Granite and Marble Widely Used in Jordan Using Gamma Ray Spectrometer

open access: yesAtom Indonesia, 2022
Granite and marble are widely used in building construction, so possible radioactive nuclides inside them may contribute to the exposure dose to human health. The purpose of this study was to investigate the natural radioactivity concentration and assess

Microscopic theory of the two-proton radioactivity [PDF]

open access: yesPhys.Rev.Lett. 95 (2005) 042503, 2006
We formulate theory of the two-proton radioactivity based on the real-energy continuum shell model. This microscopic approach is applied to describe the two-proton decay of the $1^-_2$ state in $^{18}$Ne.
