Radon daughter plate-out onto Teflon [PDF]

open access: bronzeAIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
Radiopure materials for detector components in rare event searches may be contaminated after manufacturing with long-lived $^{210}$Pb produced by the decay of atmospheric radon. Charged radon daughters deposited on the surface or implanted in the bulk of detector materials have the potential to cause noticeable backgrounds within dark matter regions of

Rain rate and radon daughters’ activity

open access: yesAtmospheric Environment, 2020
During a precipitation a transient increase of gamma activity is generated by 214Pb and 214Bi, daughters of atmospheric 222Rn, which are collected by rain droplets and brought to the ground.

Workshop on dosimetry for radon and radon daughters [PDF]

open access: green, 1978
Emphasis is placed on the dosimetry for radon and daughters, rather than on monitoring and instrumentation. The objectives of the meeting were to exchange scientific information, to identify problem areas in radon-daughter dosimetry, and to make any observations or recommendations by the participants through issuance of this report.

Mutagenicity of radon and radon daughters [PDF]

open access: green, 1991
The objective of our research is to investigate the dose-response relationship of the lethal and mutagenic effects of exposure of cells to radon and its decay products. Dose rate dependence and the nature of the DNA lesion will be studied, using the thymidine kinase and HPRT loci to measure mutation frequency.
