Abstract

The Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, with the support of the Department of Energy, has developed a computerized database to manage research information in the area of building ventilation and indoor air quality. This literature survey contains references pertaining to the physical properties of radon and its daughters, instrumentation for their measurement, health effects, surveys and measurements, and regulatory information. The references in the bibliography are sequenced in alphabetical order and abstracts are included when supplied by the author. The objective of this report is to disseminate the bibliographic references compiled at the laboratory relating to radon research portion of the program. Interested database users are encouraged to contact the laboratory to receive instructions for direct database acess. A flyer describing the database is supplied at the end of the bibliography and a brief overview of the Radon Research porgram is given.

Radon-daughter exposures in energy-efficient buildings

Technical Report Nero, A; Berk, J; Boegel, M; ...

A radon concentration of 1 pCi/1 (37 Bq/m/sup 3/) appears to lie in the range that is typical for air inside US residential buildings. Moreover, some US residences have concentrations higher than 1 pCi/1, sometimes by an order of magnitude, implying significant individual risk to occupants. For typical radon daughter equilibrium ratios, this concentration corresponds to a radon daughter exposure rate of 0.2 working level months (WLM) per year. This exposure rate may account for a significant lung cancer incidence if data on lung cancers per unit exposure in miners are applicable to such low exposures. Reductions in air exchangemore »« less

Resource management plan for the Oak Ridge Reservation: Volume 25, Resource Management Organization data base and bibliography

Technical Report Jones, K

A reference collection was developed by the Information Support Unit of the Information Resources Organization for the Resource Management Organization. The Reference Collection contains print copies of documents dealing with environmental aspects of the Oak Ridge Reservation from 1942 to the present. Subjects in this collection include environmental monitoring, hydrology, wildlife management, geology, environmental assessment, and area studies. Currently included in this collection are documents from Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the Oak Ridge Gaseous Diffusion Plant, the Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant, and the Department of Energy Oak Ridge Operations Office, as well as from external sources such as the Tennesseemore »« less
Overview of current radon and radon daughter research at LBL

Technical Report

This report provides a brief summary of radon and radon daughter research at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. The radon and radon daughter research program has two broad goals: (1) the study of sources of radon and its subsequent transport into houses, and (2) research on the behavior of radon daughters in indoor environments. Additional research effort is directed to several auxiliary areas, including development of instrumentation and monitoring techniques, studies of indoor air movement, and measurement and control of indoor particulate concentrations.

Seventy-five years of nuclear criticality safety documents - A bibliography, part II - Links to full-text documents

Conference Koponen, B.; Lee, C.; Heinrichs, D.

A collection of nuclear criticality documents was begun in the 1970's at the University of California's Lawrence Livermore Laboratory (now Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory). Documents in this bibliography are dated as early as 1940. The early documents described experimental work that was of vital importance to the safe use of fissile materials at nuclear reactors, the facilities for preparing or transporting nuclear fuel, or its eventual storage. The experiments were of direct value to support safe operations with fissile materials but they were also needed for validating early physics data and calculational methods and then for validating computational methods usedmore »« less
