Our paper presents two methods for simultaneous measurement of radon and thoron exhalation from soil and building materials: (1)-charcoal adsorption, respectively (2)-Lucas cell method.
The both methods are applicable especially in the case of a soil flux enhanced in thoron gas. In the Lucas cell case a short accumulation time was used (10-15 minutes). The thoron concentration under accumulation volume was measured immediately after the sample gas extraction and a regression equation is used for determining equilibrium thoron concentration.
In the......
