Abstract

As part of a national program to determine public exposure to natural radiation, indoor air Rn-222 concentrations were determined in dwellings of Turkey. The Rn-222 concentrations were measured with time-integrating passive nuclear etched track detectors in 27 provincial centers. The indoor radon concentrations were found to be in the range of 10-380 Bq.m(3).
