This article deals with the variation of radon (Rn), thoron (Tn) and their progeny concentrations expressed in terms of equilibrium equivalent concentrations (EERC and EETC), in 40 houses, in four villages of Sokobanja municipality, Southern Serbia. Two types of passive detectors were used: (1) discriminative radon-thoron detector for simultaneous Rn and Tn gases measurements and (2) direct Tn and Rn progeny sensors (DRPS/DTPS) for measuring Rn and Tn progeny concentrations. Detectors were exposed simultaneously for a single period of 12 months. Variations of Tn and EETC appear higher than those of Rn and EERC. Analysis of the spatial variation of the measured concentrations is also reported. This work is part of a wider survey of Rn, Tn and their progeny concentrations in indoor environments throughout the Balkan region started in 2011 year.
本文研究了塞尔维亚南部索科班贾市四个村庄40所房屋中氡(Rn)、钍射气(Tn)及其子体浓度(以平衡当量浓度EERC和EETC表示)的变化情况。使用了两种类型的被动探测器:(1)用于同时测量Rn和Tn气体的鉴别型氡 - 钍射气探测器,以及(2)用于测量Rn和Tn子体浓度的直接Tn和Rn子体传感器(DRPS / DTPS)。探测器同时暴露12个月。Tn和EETC的变化似乎高于Rn和EERC的变化。文中还报告了对测量浓度空间变化的分析。这项工作是2011年开始的巴尔干地区室内环境中Rn、Tn及其子体浓度更广泛调查的一部分。
