摘要
The aim of this study was to record the indoor radon concentrations and its seasonal variation in 25 dwellings in Athens. The experiment was undertaken between 2013 and 2014, for three seasons (spring, summer, winter) of three months each. CR-39 solid state nuclear tracks detectors were used to measure the indoor radon levels. The indoor radon concentration showed a variation between 23 and 189 Bq/m(3) during the spring, from 42 to 186 Bq/m(3) in the summer and from 79 to 245 Bq/m(3) in the course of winter. These results highlight a radon seasonal variation following the pattern: a higher concentration in the winter (137.5 Bq/m(3)) than in the summer (96.10 Bq/m(3)) and spring (54 Bq/m(3)).
