In this work, a magnitude is proposed in order to compare the potential radiological risk due to radon exposition generated by different materials, and a method based in the ^^^Rn accumulation technique is presented for its determination.. The obtained results indicate that the proposed magnitude and their ...

The radiological risk associated with the use of solid materials has been traditionally established according to their radon exhalation rates, the accumulation chamber technique being the most widely used for the determination of this quantity. However, this coupled methodology has two important drawbacks: the calculated exhalation rate value...
