Measurements of Indoor Radon Levels in India using Solid~State Nuclear Track Detectors: Need for Standardisation
Solid-state nuclear track detectors are being used to obtain the time integrated concentration levels of indoor radon/thoron and their daughters. This technique is preferred for taking such measurements in dwellings Such measurements are important as the radiation dose to human beings due to indoor radon constitutes more than 50 per cent of the total dose including that received from the natura...
متن کاملLong-term measurements of unattached radon progeny concentrations using solid-state nuclear track detectors.
We described a method for long-term passive measurements of unattached fraction fp of the potential alpha energy concentration of radon progeny from a set of measured (f1, f2, f3) values, where fi=Ci/C0 (i=1, 2, 3), and C0, C1, C2 and C3 were the concentrations of 222Rn, and the airborne concentrations of 218Po, 214Pb and 214Bi, respectively. Jacobi room model parameters were randomly sampled f...
متن کاملDigital System to Characterize Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors
A digital system to characterize solid state nuclear track detectors(SSNTD) has been developed. It was used in the study of two detectors and its performance evaluated by comparing the obtained results with those determined by using an analog system, already in use for such purpose. The comparison of the results together with the feasibility and rapidness in data acquisition have demonstrated t...
متن کاملLong-term determination of airborne radon progeny concentrations using LR 115 solid-state nuclear track detectors
This paper described the establishment of lognormal distributions for the Jacobi room model parameters with a view to improve an existing method for long-term passive measurements of the equilibrium factor using LR 115 solid-state nuclear track detectors, namely, through the proxy equilibrium factor (Fp) method. Fp is defined as (C1 þ C3)/C0 where C0, C1 and C3 are the concentrations of 222Rn, ...
متن کاملAn Overview on Studying Rn Exhalation Rates using Passive Technique Solid-State Nuclear Track Detectors
Problem statement: Uranium is a radiotoxic element found in trace quantities in alomost all natural accurring materials like soil, rock. Radon an inert radioactive gas whose predecessor in uranium, is emitted from soil beneath the house and from building materials. Accurate knowledge of exhalation rate plays an important role in characterization of the radon source strength in some building mat...
