Estimation of natural radionuclide and exhalation rates of environmental radioactive pollutants from the soil of northern India

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020
The estimation of radioactivity level is vital for population health risk assessment and geological point of view and can be evaluated as rate of exhalation and source concentration (226Ra, 232Th and 40K).

RADON EXHALATION FROM GRANITIC ROCKS

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2019
Naturally occurring radionuclides such as radon (222Rn), its decay products and other elements from the radioactive series of uranium (238U and 235U) and thorium (232Th) are an important source of human exposure to natural radioactivity. The worldwide evaluation of health radiobiological effects and risks from population exposure to natural ...

Radon and thoron exhalation rate, emanation factor and radioactivity risks of building materials of the Iberian Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Radon (222Rn) and thoron (220Rn) are radioactive gases emanating from geological materials. Inhalation of these gases is closely related to an increase in the probability of lung cancer if the levels are high.
