چکیده

Geophysical and geochemical investigations concerning deformation events of tectonic interest at the underground laboratory of Gran Sasso have been carried out and possible correlations with local seismicity are also investigated. We have planned and realized an automatic multiparametric equipment (water temperature, electrical conductivity, pH, Rn) and from the May 1996 we performs automatic measurements with a discrete sampling (T=12 h) of the groundwater collected in the interferometric region. The spike-like events observed in the geochemical parameters are related to local seismicity and Umbria -Marche seismic sequence (1997-1998).

Influence of a component of solar irradiance on radon signals at 1 km depth, Gran Sasso, Italy.

Exploratory monitoring of radon is conducted at one location in the deep underground Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS). Measurements (15-min resolution) are performed over a time span of ca 600 days in the air of the surrounding calcareous country rock. Using both α- and γ-ray detectors, systematic and recurring radon signals are recorded. Two primary signal types are determined: (i) non-pe...

Pigmented Skin Tumors in Gizzard Shad (dorosoma Cepedianum) from the South-central United States: Range Extension and Further Etiological Studies

Previous studies reported skin tumors diagnosed as pigmented subcutaneous spindle-cell neoplasms in 22% of gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum) from Lake of the Arbuckles, Oklahoma, USA. Those studies could not confirm chemical carcinogens or retroviruses as etiological agents. The present study reports the neoplasms in 20% of shad from two additional lakes, Lake Murray and Lake Texoma in south-c...

Interactive comment on “Influence of a component of solar irradiance on radon signals

The eventual influence of environmental parameters relates primarily to temperature and pressure. Temperature is stable at the site and thus pressure is raised as a possible influencing factor. This point was also raised by reviewer #2. Below is our response. âĂć We performed a statistical evaluation (Kendall rank test) of the data presented Fig. 9. This data set is important as it refers to ra...

Fast determination of indoor radon (222Rn) concentration using liquid scintillation counting

The indoor 222Rn radionuclide was directly absorbed in typical 20 ml glass scintillation vials by passing -3 dm3 of ambient air through 16 ml of water-immiscible non-volataile scintillation cocktail Ultima-Gold F for 10 min. The activity of radon and its two α-emitting daughters: 218Po and 214Po, was determined with the BetaScout low-background liquid scintillation counter. The limit of 222Rn d...

Determination of exhalation rates through measurements of alpha and beta radiation with the aid of liquid scintillation counter

Radon is a natural radioactive element in the gaseous form. It is a decay product of radium, which is present in all rocks and building materials. Radon escapes from them via diffusion and convection. The effect of radon releasing from solid materials to the pore air is called emanation. The parameters that characterise quantitatively this effect are the emanation coefficient and/or exhalation ...
