Within the framework of the European Metrological Research Program (EMRP) IND04 MetroMetal 'Ionizing radiation metrology for the metallurgical industry', joint research carried out by 14 metrological institutions from countries within the European Union and the company ENVINET, questions concerning the determination of radioactivity in samples relevant to the metallurgical industry were resolve...

Abstract Measurement of activity concentration primordial radionuclides 40 K, 232 Th, 238 U and the corresponding gamma dose rate over a major sharp-sand field in Ilorin, Nigeria, was carried out using Super Spec RS125 ray spectrometer. The spectrometer gives in-situ measurement radioactivity concentration. Measurements were taken 50 locations. peak values measured concentrations U, (D) resulti...

Background: The concentrations and distributions of natural and anthropogenic radioactive materials in soils of the site of Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant (RNPP) were investigated with the aim of evaluating the environmental radioactivity and radiation hazard. Materials and Methods: Soil samples were collected from 40 locations in and around the proposed site of Rooppur Power Plant and determined ...
