Abstract:Most city residents live and work under conditions where the concentration of radon and its decay products does not exceed 20-200 Bq/m 3, while the world average is 5-150 Bq/m 3, including in Russia where the concentration is 4.8-160 Bq/m 3 [1, 2]. A small fraction of the population (-0.1%) encounters radiation hazardous conditions (concentration of radon and its decay products equal to 200-300 Bq/m 3 and higher), since the operating stapdards limit the emanation content to 100 Bq/m 3 for new buildings and 200… Show more
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.
