Studies of the radon concentration in drinking water from the horst Soderasen in Southern Sweden

摘要

The radon activity concentration in ground water from drilled and dug wells on the horst Soderasen in Southern Sweden has been determined with two different methods, gamma Activity measurements with a germanium HPGe detector and alpha activity measurements with plastic track detectors. The results are consistent. High activity concentration is Connected to granite bedrock. Dug wells have low concentrations and no trivial correlation Between concentration and depth of the well is found.
