:Nowadays there are increasing uses of SSNTD on scientific works in Thailand. Currently we are using SSNTD as an important tool for confirming active fault zones in a province in which a new nuclear research reactor has been proposed to come up. Soil gas radon was measured by both active and passive methods. In the latter case CR-39 SSNTD was installed in a PVC tube of 50 cm long by 5 cm in diameter. The tubes were placed in 50-cm deep holes lining perpendicular to the faults' trace for one week. In this paper we describe the method and the results on calibrating these detectors using a radon chamber and a NIST-traceable radium-226 standard source.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
