Specific Activity of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K for Assessment of Radiation Hazards from Building Materials Commonly Used in Upper Egypt
Abstract: In this paper, the specific activity of natural radionuclides (226Ra, 232Th, and 40K) in some building materials, soil, sand, redbrick, clay brick, limestone, alabaster and marble commonly used in Upper Egypt is presented. Measurements were done by using gamma spectrometry (NaI (Tl) 3″x...
