Natural radioactivity assessment in soil samples from Kirkuk city of Iraq using HPGe detector
Background: Inspection of the level of radioactivity from radionuclides in soil is important for the assessment of the exposure to natural radiation. Materials and Methods: Ten samples from soil were collected from different sites of Kirkuk-IRAQ and the level of natural radioactivity was measured using gamma-ray spectrometry based on a high purity germanium (HPGe) detector. Results: It was foun...
متن کاملMeasurement of Natural Radioactivity and Assessment of Associated Radiation Hazards in Soil Samples
Introduction e knowledge of radionuclide distribution and radiation levels in the environment is important for assessing the effects of radiation exposure due to both terrestrial and cosmogenic sources. Terrestrial radiation is due to radioactive nuclides present in varying amounts in soils, building materials, water, rocks and atmosphere. Some of the radionuclides from these sources are trans...
متن کاملRadioactivity And Dose Assessment Of Rock And Soil Samples From Homa Mountain, Homa Bay County, Kenya
The in situ measured average outdoor absorbed dose rate in air was found to vary from 108.4 to 1596.4 nGy h at Homa Mountain area in southwestern Kenya. Rock and soil samples collected gave average values of the radioactivity concentrations of K, Ra and Th of 915.6, 195.3 and 409.5 Bq kg, respectively. The range of the annual effective dose for a person living in Homa Mountain area calculated v...
متن کاملEvaluation of natural radioactivity of soil samples from different regions of Wassit governorate
The present paper measures natural radioactivity in different areas of Wassit governorate, using (HPGe) detector. Gamma spectrum analysis for each sample along with caululated specific activity show that the average concentrations of U-238, Th-232, and K-40 have been 19.420±4.7 Bq/kg, 18.487±5.05 Bq/kg, and 204.266±46.9 Bq/kg respectively, which is lower than the worldwide average value. While ...
