This paper presents the results of a two-year radon risk study conducted at the Historic Silver Mine in Tarnowskie Góry. During this period, continuous measurements of radon activity concentration were carried out in three-month cycles at 30 points ...

The Radioactive Beam Program at Argonne [PDF]
In this talk I will present selected topics of the ongoing radioactive beam program at Argonne and discuss the capabilities of the CARIBU radioactive ion production facility as well as plans for construction of a novel superconducting solenoid spectrometer.

Growth Responses of Holcus lanatus L. (Velvet Grass) in Soils Contaminated with Cesium or Strontium
Radiocesium (r-Cs) and radiostrontium (r-Sr) released from nuclear accidents (e.g., Chornobyl, Fukushima) and routine operations (reactors, reprocessing) pose environmental and health concerns.

Natural and artificial radioactivity appears to be different in different geological regions. Moreover, the radionuclides may migrate to the deeper region of the earth after deposition, and the depth profile of a radionuclide reveals information on the ...

The discovery of radioactivity
The radioactivity of uranium was discovered in 1896 by Henri Becquerel who, starting from a wrong idea, progressively realized what he was observing, regularly informing the French Academy of Sciences of the progress he was doing. In the next years, it was found that thorium was radioactive too, and two new radioactive elements, polonium and radium ...

The light curve in supernova modeled by a continuous radioactive decay of $^{56}$Ni [PDF]
The UVOIR bolometric light curves are usually modeled by the radioactive decay. In order to model more precisely the absolute/apparent magnitude versus time relationship the continuous production of radioactive isotopes is introduced. A differential equation of the first order with separable variables is solved.

The neglected activation of tantalum in reduced activation materials
Due to the expression of “reduced activation”, the severe radioactivity of tantalum (Ta) after neutron irradiation in early decay years is easily neglected. In the presented study, after an irradiation of only 0.3 dpa by fission neutron and followed by a

Stellar Radioactivities and diffuse gamma-ray line emission in the Milky Way [PDF]
After a short historical introduction to the field of gamma-ray line astronomy with radioactivities, I present an overview of recent results concerning the massive star yields of those radioactivities. I comment on the implications of those results (concerning long-lived radioactivities, like Al-26 and Fe-60) for gamma-ray line astronomy, in the light ...
