Abstract:A: 222 Rn and 220 Rn can be used as tracers of groundwater or submarine springs, and 222 Rn in water also could indicate indoor radon problems in some regions. The half-life of 222 Rn is long enough that its concentration may remain significant during transit over relatively long distances, while that of 220 Rn is not. Prior research revealed that it took about 15 min for the radon to achieve gas equilibrium at a water flow rate of 17.5 L min −1 , which is approximately equivalent to the time required for t… Show more
