Study on influence of soil and atmospheric parameters on radon/thoron exhalation rate in the Bangalore University campus, Bengaluru [PDF]

open access: yesRadiation Protection and Environment, 2018
In the present study, Radon (222Rn) and Thoron (220Rn) concentration have been measured in the Bangalore University Campus using RAD7 during the postmonsoon season. The results reveal that 222Rn concentration ranged from 360 ± 146 to 643 ± 196 Bq/m3 with

Indoor radon and thoron from building materials: Analysis of humidity, air exchange rate, and dose assessment

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020
Building materials contribute significantly to the indoor radon and thoron levels. Therefore, parameters that influence the exhalation rates of radon and thoron from building material need to be analyzed closely.

Radon-thoron measurements in air and soil from some districts of northern part of India [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2015
Radon, thoron and their progenies in the indoor environment are considered as one of the health hazards. The alpha emitting nature of these gases made it possible to detect in indoor environment with the help of nuclear track detector techniques.

The Radon Exhalation Rate and Dose Assessment of Granite Used as a Building Material in Serbia

open access: yesAtmosphere
The application of energy-saving policies in buildings could lead to a decrease in the air exchange rate in dwellings, which could consequently lead to an increase in indoor radon concentration and, therefore, to an increase in resident exposure to ...

Foraminifera assemblages from Fantangisña serpentinite mud seamount in the NW Pacific Ocean during the Pleistocene (IODP Expedition 366)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page 1103-1127, October 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT The Mariana forearc system, in the northwestern Pacific, is known as the only convergent margin setting with currently active serpentine mud volcanism. The Fantangisña serpentinite mud volcano lies 62 km west of the Mariana trench, within the influence of the North Equatorial Current (NEC).
