Estimation of the Radon Risk Under Different European Climates and Soil Textures
Frontiers in Public Health, 2022 Radon is a radioactive gas produced from the natural radioactive decay of uranium and is found in almost all rocks and soils. In confined places (e.g., dwellings, workplaces, caves, and underground mines), radon may accumulate and become a substantial ...

The diffusion of radon gas mixtures [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1939 Abstract The repulsive force, F12, between dissimilar molecules may be represented by the equation F12= μ12d-812, where d is the distance between the dissimilar molecules which are regarded as point centres of repulsive force, while 812 represents the repulsive force index, and μ12 the repulsive force constant between these molecules.

Radon gas passive measurement system production
International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology, 2022 The value of the radon gas concentration inhaled in closed environments is important for human health. If the value is high, the risk of getting lung cancer increases. Therefore, it is vital to measure the radon concentration in living spaces. In this study, a system that measures the concentration of radon gas in indoor environments has been designed ...
