Analysis of gross alpha, gross beta activities and beryllium- 7 concentrations in surface air: their variation and statistical prediction model

Radioactivity in the atmosphere originates from natural radioactive decay, cosmogenic production, nuclear weapons testing and nuclear accidents. Results of the measurements have shown that cosmogenic 7Be is the only gamma emitting nuclide found in the atmosphere of Iran (1). 7Be (t1/2 = 53d) is one of the radioactive products of the bombardment of the atmosphere by cosmic rays. About 75% of 7Be...

Beryllium-7 in ocean water.

Concentration of the radio nuclide beryllium-7, produced by cosmic rays, was measured in waters collected from both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. This short-lived nuclide is well suited as a tracer for interactions at the air-sea interface and for the measurement of rapid mixing processes in the surface layer of the ocean.
