INDOOR ~(222)Rn CONCENTRATION MEASUREMENTS IN SOME BUILDINGS OF HEBRON PROVINCE DURING THE WINTER SEASON OF THE YEAR 2000

摘要

In this study, we report on the indoor radon concentration levels in a number of locations scattered in the Hebron province, Palestine. The measurements were performed during the winter season of the year 1999/2000 using the CR-39 detectors. The radon concentration levels were found to vary from 23 to 580 Bq m~(-3). The arithmetic average of the obtained radon concentration levels was found to be 91 Bq m~(-3). It was found that most of the radon concentration levels in houses and school rooms are below the low reference levels limits. Most of the high-radon concentration levels were found in unpainted storage rooms.
