Measurements and applications of radon in South African aquifer and river waters
Abdalla, Siddig Abdalla Talha (University of the Western Cape, 2009)In the natural decay series of 238U an inert radioactive gas, 222Rn (radon) is formed in the decay of 226Ra. Because radon is relatively soluble in water, it migrates from places of its generation in rocks and soils to ... -
