Abstract AR
الدراسة هدفت إلى تحديد تركيز غاز الرادون-222 في الحصى الطبيعي المستخدم في محافظة البصرة.
جمعت العينات من ثمانية مناطق لتجميع الحصى و لعدة مواقع لنفس المنطقة.
أظهرت النتاج أن مدى تركيز غاز الرادون و باستخدام كاشف الأثر النووي الصلب نوع CN-85 كان من 12.57Bq / m3 إلى 39.80 Bq / m3.
أما مدى نواتج الرادون فكان من 1.35 Mwl إلى 4.30 Mwl و مدى التعرض السنوي بوحدات WLM كان من 0.048 إلى 0.154.
أما مدى الجرعة المؤثرة فكان من 0.432 mSv / y إلى 1.385 mSv / y.
Abstract EN
This study assesses the concentration of radon gas in natural stones used in building in Basra governorate.
The stones are collected from eight regions with different locations within the same region.
The results shown, by used the Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs) type CN-85, the range of radon concentration varies from 12.57 Bq/m³ to 39.8 Bq/m³.
The range of radon daughters varies from 1.35 mWL to 4.30 mWL.
The range of annual exposure dose by Working Level Month (WLM) unit was from 0.048 to 0.154 and range of annual effective dose was from 0.432 mSv/y to 1.386 mSv/y.
