Airborne Particulate Radioactivity Measurements in Pocatello, Idaho

摘要

This report describes a study conducted in the Pocatello, Idaho area to evaluate the ambient airborne particulate concentration of naturally occurring radioactive materials. Reported here are the airborne concentrations of isotopic uranium and thorium, and radium-226. Technical difficulties prevented the full assessment of the radiological impact of polonium-210 and lead-210.
