The aim of this paper was to study the variations of radon and daughter nuclei during treatment in the thermal spas of Lesvos Island (Greece). For this purpose, in the thermal spas of Lesvos we have measured the radon concentrations of thermal waters, as well as indoor radon, daughter and coarse particle (>500 nm) concentrations. Various instruments and procedures were employed for measurements. Radon concentrations of thermal waters were found to lie in the range 10 Bq l(-1) and 304 Bq l(-1). Concentration peaks both for radon, radon daughter and coarse particle, were found to appear during filling of baths in the treatment process. The doses delivered to the bathers during treatment were in the range of 0.00670-0.1279 mSv per year, while the doses delivered to personnel were below 20 mSv per year.
本文旨在研究希腊莱斯博斯岛温泉浴场治疗期间氡及其子体核素的变化情况。为此,我们在莱斯博斯岛的温泉浴场测量了热水中的氡浓度以及室内氡、子体和粗颗粒(>500纳米)的浓度。测量采用了各种仪器和程序。发现热水中的氡浓度在10贝可勒尔/升至304贝可勒尔/升之间。在治疗过程中浴缸注水期间,氡、氡子体和粗颗粒的浓度均出现峰值。治疗期间给予沐浴者的剂量为每年0.00670 - 0.1279毫希沃特,而给予工作人员的剂量低于每年20毫希沃特。
