摘要
The radioactivity concentrations of 238U, 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in soil samples around Tarapur vary from 11.5 ± 2.6 to 50.3 ± 6.6, 14.9 ± 0.6 to 40.5 ± 1.2, 18.1 ± 0.4 to 75.0 ± 1.5 and 130.1 ± 1.6 to 295.1 ± 2.6 Bq/Kg respectively. The measured activity concentrations for 238U and 226Ra were compared and found in good agreement with the Indian as well as world average. The average 232Th and 40K concentrations in Tarapur were lower than the Indian average value.
