Integrating Radon Progeny Monitor
INTRODUCTION The Japan Nuclear Cycle Development Institute (JNC) carried out research and development projects related to uranium exploration in Japan from 1967 to 1987. Several mining facilities have been retained after the end of projects. Hence, the study on the behavior and the environmental impact of radon and its progeny from the mining facilities is being continued at the Ningyo-toge Env...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Portable Radon Progeny Monitor for Individual Concentration
INTRODUCTION The Rn(radon) family is the most significant source of exposure to natural radiation, causing about one-half of the public effective dose. A number of international organizations, including UNSCEAR (United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation) and ICRP (International Commission on Radiological Protection) have officially reported this fact since the 1980’...
متن کاملA study on radon and thoron progeny levels in dwellings in South India
Background: Decay products of radon and thoron present in indoor environment are the most important sources of radiation from natural sources which affect human beings, since general public spend at lest 80% of their time in indoor. Materials and Methods: Air samples were collected for measuring the concentration of radon and thoron daughter products from various indoor environments d...
متن کاملBronchial dosimeter for radon progeny.
A true bronchial dosimeter has been designed, consisting of four 400-mesh wire screens and a filter paper. With a face velocity of 3.3 cm s(-1) for home exposure and 4.6 cm s(-1) for mine exposure, the deposition pattern on the wire screens were found to satisfactorily match the variation of the dose conversion factor (in units of mSv WL M(-1)) with the size of radon progeny from 1 to 1000 nm. ...
متن کاملEfficiency Analysis and Comparison of Different Radon Progeny Measurement Methods
Radon exposure to the public contributes more than half of all the radiation doses caused by natural radiation; accurate measurement of radon progeny is quite essential for the dose evaluation of radon exposure in environment. For the purpose of establishing a radon progeny standard and controlling measurement quality of commercial devices, it is quite important to analyze the efficiency of dif...
