Measurement of natural radioactivity in several sandy-loamy soil samples from Sijua, Dhanbad, India
The activity concentrations of natural radionuclides 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in soil samples collected from Sijua Dhanbad, India were measured by using a gamma-ray spectrometer with a NaI(Tl) detector. The average activity concentration of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K was found as 60.3, 64.5 and 481.0 Bq. kg−...
