Authors: PARA, A.K., PARA, A.W.

Keywords: radon, pollution, detector, radon concentration

Abstract: In order to pay attention to the existence of radon and the degree of the pollution of the room caused by its existence proper observations and analysis were to be carried. Based on the detector CR-39, properly protected in the container, the trail density of (Np) left by α particles and the average concentration of radon (C) were measured. The detector stayed for 3168 hours in the cellar of a school in Krosno. The building built in 1963 has cellars, is two level, is built of brick and the room the detector stayed in has concrete floor. The building has water pipe system, sewage system and central heating. The foil used in the detector was etched for 7 hours in the solution 10 N of NaOH in special thermostat furnace in the temperature 70o C.
