Abstract
Abstract
Radon concentration has determined in 46 samples collected from farmland soil of Al- Shamiyah city, Al-Qadisiyah, Iraq with alpha-emitters records their out of radon in nuclear track detector (CR-39). The results showed the maximum concentration of radon is 13.02 Bq/m3 and the minimum concentration of radon is 0.12 Bq/m3, with a mean value of 6.48 ± 0.77 Bq/m3. Results reveal that the exhalation radon mass varied from 4.271 to 6.004 mBq/kg.h. The results explained the radon concentrations in farmland soil were less than 200 Bq/m3 that it is recommended by UNSCEAR. On the other hand, the results observed that the samples do not create any impact on humans.
