Low Level Liquid Scintillation Counting of Radioactivity in Food Products
The production rate is 7.5 kg isotope C-14 yearly. The C-14 concentration stays approximately constant due to rapid mixing of the atmosphere, although the cosmic intensity is higher at the poles due to the deflection of charged cosmic particles along the magnetic field lines of the earth (corresponding to neutron intensities in the ratio 5:1 at the poles and the equator, respectively). Conseque...
متن کاملGamma Radiation Measurement due to Natural Radioactivity in Hot Water Spring of Behbahan
Introduction: Many people use hot water springs to treat some diseases, such as rheumatism, arthritis, and skin diseases, but they are unaware of the presence of natural radioactive substances that may be found in hot water springs. An effective way to understand the radiation risk of these elements are measuring the dose rate of radiation. In this study, for the first time, ga...

Background: The natural radioactivity level and the radon concentration of soil were measured at four important geothermal area located in Dikili geothermal region, Turkey. Materials and Methods: The natural radionuclide content of soil samples were measured by NaI(Tl) gamma spectrometer system and the soil radon concentration were determined using Kodak-Pethe LR-115 Type II Solid State Nuclear...
متن کاملRadioactivity and radiation hazard assessment of Cauvery River, Tamilnadu, India
Background: Natural radiation is constantly present in the environment and is emitted from a variety of natural and artificial sources. It affects human body and environment. Materials and Methods: The activity concentrations of 238U, 232Th and 40K have been determined by Gamma ray spectrometer with an HPGe detector in sediments of Cauvery River, Tamilnadu, India. Results: The absorbe...
متن کاملMeasurement of Natural Radioactivity and Assessment of Associated Radiation Hazards in Soil Samples
Introduction e knowledge of radionuclide distribution and radiation levels in the environment is important for assessing the effects of radiation exposure due to both terrestrial and cosmogenic sources. Terrestrial radiation is due to radioactive nuclides present in varying amounts in soils, building materials, water, rocks and atmosphere. Some of the radionuclides from these sources are trans...
