A new method to measure radon and thoron in flowing gases and its use to determine the thoron- content of atmospheric air

Conference ·
OSTI ID:4884862
The measurement of Rn (Rn222) and Tn (Rn220) in air is of interest mainly for three purposes: distribution studies of the atmosphere; control of the inhalation hazard of workers in the uranium and thorium mining and milling industry; and, determination of the Ra226 or Th232-body burden. The paper describes methods used for measurement.
