The analysis of sludge samples generated during water treatment processes show that
different radioisotopes of uranium, thorium and radium, among others can accumulate in that …

Natural radionuclides, radon exposure, soil particles, moisture, and dwellings from quarry
towns in Greater Accra Region have been studied with hyper pure germanium detector …

Earthquake forecasting is arguably one of the most challenging tasks in Earth sciences
owing to the high complexity of the earthquake process. Over the past 40 years, there has …

Indoor radon (222 Rn) measurements were carried out using solid state nuclear track
detectors (SSNTD) in some dwellings from southwestern Nigeria. This was aimed at …

This study reports the first radon concentration measurements within three frequently visited
caves in Florida: one touristic (Florida Caverns), one private (Ocala Caverns), and one …

In a study of 56 randomly selected Traditional Mud Houses (TMHs) in Nigeria, the radiation
health impacts of radon progeny were evaluated using CR-39 radon detectors within a rainy …

Indoor radon-in-air (IR) concentrations in dwellings situated on a fault line passing
underneath Muzaffarabad City were measured with a continuous radon monitor …

Background: Geological materials usually contain trace amounts of radioactive materials
and may serve as a natural source of background radiation exposure to the general public …

The optimum radon measurement conditions for a kind of passive radon dosimeter
containing CR-39 detector with large effective area were studied in detail. The optimum …

Because 222 Rn is a progeny of 238 U, the relative abundance of uranium may be used to
predict the areas that have the potential for high indoor radon concentration and therefore …
