Abstract Background The European Union council has introduced the basic safety standards
(EU-BSS) for protection against the dangers arising from exposure to ionizing radiation by …

The present work aims to radiologically characterize five samples (monazite, zircon, scale
waste originating from petroleum production, black sands and phosphate rocks) from …

The natural stones are commonly used as interior and exterior building material. The
accessory minerals of some rocks can generate a high amount of radon in the atmosphere …

The present work deals with radon pollution arising from granitic rocks using an Alpha
Guard radon monitor. Forty-four granitic samples were collected from five sites located in the …

Tailings resulted from sulphuric acid leaching process of uranium from sedimentary rocks
contain high concentrations of 226 Ra and its daughters, the most important of which is 222 …

Four different grain size fractions (0.2–0.5, 0.5–1, 1–1.8, 1.8–2 mm) of red brick and cement
mortar samples at different moisture (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) content relative to the …

Assessment of the exhalation rate allows a classification of materials according to their
potential risk of exposure to radon. The present study investigates the granulation effect on …

随着对氡气危害认识的加深, 花岗岩作为生产, 生活上接触较多的天然辐射来源,
其氡析出特征对人居环境的辐射影响得到广泛关注. 本文从岩石的原生特性和次生变化两方面对 …

The radiological hazards for forty-eight post orogenic peralkaline granitic samples collected
from Mount (Gabal G) Ghareb, Eastern Desert, Egypt, were assessed for their radon …

The influence of weathering degree on radon exhalation was studied by measuring the
radon exhalation rate of Jinxi town, Hunan Province, China, by the electrostatic collection …
