Abstract EN
In this study the radon gas concentration in air in Al-Haswaa city in province of Baghdad in Iraq have been calculated using CR-39 solid–state nuclear track detector technique.
A total of 8 samples selected from 8 region in Al-Haswaa city in province of Baghdad have been placed in the dosimeters for 30 day.
The average radon gas concentration was found to be 486.26 Bq / m3 which is lower than the standard international limit (1100 Bq / m3).
The potential alpha energy concentration and annual effective dose have been calculated.
A proportional relationship between the annual effective dose and radon gas concentration within the studied region has been certified.
