background: the natural radioactivity level and the radon concentration of soil were measured at four important geothermal area located in dikili geothermal region, turkey. materials and methods: the natural radionuclide content of soil samples were measured by nai(tl) gamma spectrometer system and the soil radon concentration were determined using kodak-pethe lr-115 type ii solid state nuclear...

Neutron detectors are an essential tool for the development of many research fields, as nuclear, particle and astroparticle physics well radiotherapy radiation safety. Since neutrons cannot directly ionize, their detection is only possible via nuclear reactions. Consequently, neutron-based experimental techniques related to charged or electromagnetic originating from neutron-induced The study f...

Alpha and beta activities per unit volume of air, due to radon, thoron and their decay products were measured in the outdoor atmosphere in Errachidia city, Morocco, by using both CR-39 and LR-115 type II solid-state nuclear track detectors (SSNTDs). Simultaneously, meteorological parameters such as air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity were also measured in situ.. In addi...

The efficiency of track reconstruction for particles detected in at least four stations is presented in Table 1. Two STS detector setups have been investigated. In the idealistic setup all stations are pixel-like detectors. The realistic setup consists of (going downstream) 2 MAPS detectors, 1 pixel detector and 4 double-sided silicon strip detectors with 15 stereo angle. Different number of pi...

A systematic study of the attenuation electromagnetic radiation in Nuclear Track Detectors (NTDs) is carried out. The gamma-ray, X-ray, UV, visible, and infrared NTDs are investigated using NaI(Tl) detector, Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) UV-Vis spectrophotometer, FTIR spectrophotometer respectively. values some important parameters (e.g., optical depth, coefficient, etc.) three commercially ava...
