Measurements of indoor radon, thoron and their progeny in Farrukhabad city of Uttar Pradesh, India
Background: More than 50% of the total dose received by human beings from all sources of radiation (both from natural and manmade) comes from radon and its progeny which is responsible for lung cancer in many cases. Materials and Methods: In the present study, the measurements have been carried out by using twin chamber dosimeter cups with LR-115 type-II detectors. The value of track ...
متن کاملComparative analysis of radon, thoron and thoron progeny concentration measurements
This study examined correlations between radon, thoron and thoron progeny concentrations based on surveys conducted in several different countries. For this purpose, passive detectors developed or modified by the National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS) were used. Radon and thoron concentrations were measured using passive discriminative radon-thoron detectors. Thoron progeny measurem...
متن کاملSimultaneous measurements of indoor radon, radon-thoron progeny and high-resolution gamma spectrometry in Greek dwellings.
Simultaneous indoor radon, radon-thoron progeny and high-resolution in situ gamma spectrometry measurements, with portable high-purity Ge detector were performed in 26 dwellings of Thessaloniki, the second largest town of Greece, during March 2003-January 2005. The radon gas was measured with an AlphaGUARD ionisation chamber (in each of the 26 dwellings) every 10 min, for a time period between ...
متن کاملIntegrating Measurements of Indoor Thoron and Its Progeny Concentrations
INTRODUCTION UNSCEAR (1) reported that the effective doses due to inhalation of radon (Rn) and its progeny account on average for about one-half of all natural sources of radiation. In recent years, indoor surveys in Europe and Asia revealed that the dose contribution from thoron (Rn) and its progeny can equal to or even exceed that of Rn and its progeny (2). For assessment the public exposure ...
