The main contribution to population exposure is due to radon and thoron progenies and not radon itself. The aim of this study was therefore to estimate annual effective dose using the results of Direct Radon and Thoron Progeny Sensors were exposed in 69 selected schools and 319 dwellings in several regions of Balkans: in Serbia: regions of Sokobanja and Kosovo and Metohija, Republic of Macedonia, Republic of Srpska and Slovenia. Obtained average total effective doses are in the range from 0.22 mSv a-1 (schools in Republic of Srpska) to 2.5 mSv a-1 (dwellings in Kosovo) and are below the reference level of 10 mSv a-1 recommended by International Commission on Radiological Protection.
对人群暴露的主要贡献来自氡及其子体,而非氡本身。因此,本研究的目的是利用直接氡及其子体传感器的测量结果估算年有效剂量。这些传感器在巴尔干半岛几个地区的69所选定学校和319处住宅中进行了暴露:在塞尔维亚的索科巴尼亚地区以及科索沃和梅托希亚地区、马其顿共和国、塞族共和国和斯洛文尼亚。获得的平均总有效剂量范围为0.22毫希沃特/年(塞族共和国的学校)至2.5毫希沃特/年(科索沃的住宅),均低于国际放射防护委员会建议的10毫希沃特/年的参考水平。
