Abstract AR

تم في هذا البحث قياس مستويات تركيز الرادون 222Rn في 40 منزلا في مدينة النجف خلال فصل الصيف لعام 2012، من خلآل الكشف عن جسيمات إلفا الصادرة عن الرادون باستعمال مجراعات رادونية تراكمية خاملة تمت معايرتها مسبقا ومحتويه على كواشف الحالة الصلبة للمسارات النووية نوع 39-CR.

إن القياسات التي تم الحصول عليها لتراكيز الرادون في المنازل خلال الصيف تراوحت بين Bq.

M-3 11.654 ± 4.214 إلى 8.777 ± 353.610 Bq.

Abstract EN

Measurement of radon concentration level was carried out in 40 houses in Al– Najaf city during summer season of 2012.

Long term measurement of indoor of old building radon concentrations have been taken, using a previously calibrated passive diffusion dosimeters containing CR–39 solid state nuclear track detectors which are very sensitive for alpha particles.

The measurement of the indoor radon concentration obtained in summer in these regions ranged from 11.654 ± 4.216 Bq.m-3 to 53.610 ± 8.777 Bq.m-3.

The results were within universally permitted levels.
