Natural radioactivity and radon exhalation rate of soil in southern Egypt
Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 2001The level of natural radioactivity in soil of 30 mining samples collected from six locations in southern Egypt was measured. Concentrations of radionuclides in samples were determined by gamma-ray spectrometer using HPGe detector with a specially designed shield.

Postprandial Changes in the Exhalation Rate of Radon Produced in Vivo
Science, 1978The rate of exhalation of radon by persons with long-standing radium burdens increases about twofold shortly after a meal. The increase is short-lived and "normal" values are regained in 1.5 to 2 hours. The effect may account in part for the poor reproducibility in estimates of the freely emanating part of the radium content.

Measurements of radon exhalation rate for monitoring cement hydration
Materials and Structures, 2006The paper deals with one of the physical methods, which can be used for monitoring hydration of cementitious materials: the radon exhalation method. Experiments with two types of hydrating cement paste (made with water to cement ratios of 0.25 and 0.33) are described. The kinetics of shrinkage and hydration heat development are discussed.

Determination of radon specific exhalation rate from Italian ceramic tiles.
2007Porcelain tiles commonly manufactured in Italy have been studied for both natural radionuclide content and radon emanation using high resolution gamma spectroscopy and the E-PERM electret ion chamber, respectively. The measured activity concentrations were 33–257 Bq/kg for U-238, 33–197 Bq/kg for Ra-226, and 39–76 Bq/kg for Th-232; the radon exhalation

RADON CONCENTRATION AND RADON EXHALATION RATE FOR GRANITE ROCKS, CENTRAL EASTERN DESERT, EGYPT
2023The aim of the present work deals with measuring 222Rn Concentration (Bq/m3), 222Rn exhalation rate, annual effective dose (indoors and outdoors) and excess lifetime cancer risk (RRLC %), for basement rock samples from central Eastern Desert of Egypt using Alpha GUARD.
