An experimental analysis of some of the factors affecting gross alpha-particle activity with an emphasis on 226Ra and its progenyMichael F Arndt
Environmental Health Division, Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene, 2601 Agriculture Drive, Madison, WI 53716, USA
Health Phys 92:148-56. 2007..For a given sample geometry, the gross-alpha particle activity generally increases as the residue mass increases owing to the presence of the radium progeny...- An experimental analysis of the contribution of 224Ra and 226Ra and progeny to the gross alpha-particle activity of water samplesMichael F Arndt
Environmental Health Division, Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene, 2601 Agriculture Drive, Madison, WI 53718, USA
Health Phys 94:459-70. 2008.... - An experimental analysis of the contribution of 228Ra progeny to the gross alpha-particle activity of water samplesMichael F Arndt
Environmental Health Division, Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene, 2601 Agriculture Drive, Madison, WI 53718, USA
Health Phys 95:213-9. 2008..55 Bq L(-1)). Since 228Ra activity is already regulated, a gross alpha-particle activity violation that only exists because of the presence of 228Ra can be considered to be a false positive violation... - An experimental analysis of the contribution of 210Po and of 210Po produced by 210Pb decay to the gross alpha-particle activity of water samplesMichael F Arndt
Environmental Health Division, Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene, 2601 Agriculture Drive, Madison, WI 53718, USA
Health Phys 95:310-6. 2008..5 times the 210Pb activity for grab and quarterly composite samples, respectively. It is also shown qualitatively that at least for some residues, there is a loss of polonium due to volatilization when the sample is heated over a flame...
