Outdoor 222Rn behaviour in different areas of Slovakia

open access: yesNukleonika, 2016
Radon activity concentration (RAC) in the outdoor atmosphere was monitored in four localities of Slovakia. The distance between the localities were up to 130 km. The localities had a diverse orography, ranging from flatland to hilly terrain.

A study of the natural radioactivity and radon exhalation rate in some cements used in India and its radiological significance

open access: yesJournal of Radiation Research and Applied Sciences, 2016
The presence of natural radioactivity and radon exhalation from building materials contribute to the radiation dose received by human. So, it is essential to evaluate the activity levels of the primordial radionuclides (238U, 226Ra, 232Th and 40K ...
