A first comprehensive study is presented on radioactivity concentrations and dose rates in 87 commonly used materials, manufactured or imported in Cyprus, for building purposes. The natural radioactivity of K-40, Th-232, U-238 and Ra-226 is…
The use of building materials containing naturally occurring radionuclides,such as K-40, U-238 and Th-232 and their progeny, could lead to external exposures of the residents of such buildings. In this paper, a set of models are set up to…
The gamma radiation in samples of a variety of natural tiling rocks (granites) imported in Cyprus for use in the building industry was measured, employing high-resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy. The rock samples were pulverized, sealed in 1…
In situ, high-resolution, gamma-ray spectrometry of a total number of 70 outdoor and 20 indoor representative measurements were performed in preselected, common locations of the main urban areas of Cyprus. Specific activities and gamma…
A survey was carried out to determine activity concentration levels and associated dose rates from the naturally occurring radionuclides Th-232, U-238, and K-40, in the various geological formations appearing throughout the geographically…
The radiological doses and hazard indices of natural radionuclides $^{238}$U,$^{232}$Th and $^{40} $K in soil samples from Kerbala city were evaluated using gamma-ray spectroscopy system using NaI(Tl) ${"1.5\times 2"}$ detector in…
Using high-resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy, the terrestrial gamma radiation in all the predominant types of geological rock formations appearing in Cyprus was measured. Soil samples were collected from each rock type, sealed in 1-litre…
The natural radionuclide (Ra^222, Th^232, and 40K) contents were determined for seven locations over the whole Wadi Arar at north of Saudi Arabia, using gamma-spectrometry analysis. The range of activity concentrations of Ra^226, Th^232,…
In this work, radioactivity investigations of soil samples from neutral and agricultural sites in Punjab/India have been carried out to study the impact of land use patterns. The analysis of radiological, mineralogical, physicochemical, and…
Because potential Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORMs) generated from oil and gas extractions in Albania have been disposed without regulatory criteria in many decades, an extensive survey in one of the most productive regions…
In this study, the activity concentration of natural ( 238 U, 232 Th, 40 K) and artificial radionuclides (137 Cs) were measurements in six different brands of tea have been collected from local market in Ethiopia (Addis Ababa city). have…
Using high--sensitivity radon (Rn-222) portable detectors (passive electronic devices of the type RADIM3), the airborne Rn-222 concentration in the interior of various Cypriot buildings and dwellings was measured. For each preselected…
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that contributes significantly to human radiation exposure and must be controlled to avoid concentrations harmful to health. The paper presents an impulse-proportional ionization chamber that…
Objective To analyze the radiation dose associated with gamma-ray mobile flaw detection, estimate the extent of the supervision and control areas, and assess the associated radiation risks. Methods A combination of theoretical calculations…
Recent measurements of radiation gamma background at high mountain altitude, namely at Basic Environmental Observatory Moussala (42{\deg}10' 45" N; 23{\deg} 35'07"E, 2925m a.s.l.) are carried out. The measurements are fulfilled with several…
A method to extract simultaneously level densities and $\gamma$-ray transmission coefficients has for the first time been tested on light nuclei utilizing the $^{28}$Si($^3$He,$\alpha\gamma)^{27}$Si and…
High energy $\gamma$-ray spectra measured by our group involving the compound nuclei (CN) $^{63}$Cu at excitation energy ($E^*$) $\sim$ 36 MeV with average angular momentum ($J$) = 12 - 17 $\hbar$, $^{97}$Tc at $E^* \sim$ 29 - 50 MeV with…
The results of measurements and computer simulations of radioactivities and dose rates as functions of decay time are presented for Pb-nat and Bi-209 irradiated by 1.5-GeV protons, Co-59, Cu-63, and Cu-65 irradiated by 0.13- and 1.2-GeV…
The average gamma-ray spectrum $^{114}$Cd after thermal neutron capture in $^{113}$Cd was evaluated in units of mb/MeV. Two approaches are considered for estimation of the average gamma-ray spectrum with normalization of the experimental…
The independent analysis of the published data on the intensities of the primary gamma-quanta following resonance neutron capture in $^{236}U$ has been performed. Distribution of these intensities about the mean value was approximated in…
