Abstract:Radon exhaled from rocks, building materials, and soil can
be harmful to human health, so it is necessary to measure radon and
its exhalation rate. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to
simulate radon exhalation from different medium surface by using a
solid Rn-222 source, and the radon exhalation rate can be adjusted
by replacing radon accumulation chambers with different bottom
areas. Firstly, an experiment was done to determine the activity of
the Rn-222 source, and then the theoretical… Show more
