2 new publications have been recently published in the frames of WP2 and WP6. Assessing the exposure situations with naturally occurring radioactive materials across European countries by means of the e-NORM survey by Mrdakovic Popic et al. was published in Science of...
The project undertaken by Ä. Degenhardt from BfS is one of the four finalists nominated for the ICRP Cousins Award in 2023. Her project titled “A Biokinetic Model to Assess Radon Uptake by the Fetus in Pregnant Women” is part of the work in Task 3.3 of WP3 and will be...
The latest publication from Felicioni et al. at the Czech Technical University in Prague is titled “An Environmental Evaluation of Ventilation Systems Aimed at Reducing Indoor Radon Concentration”. The study evaluated the environmental impact of residential...
Evidence consistently indicates that testing for radon and subsequent home mitigation rates are generally low in many countries, even when indoor radon concentrations can be cost-effectively reduced. The new RadoNorm study, conducted by Hevey David, Perko Tanja,...
A new publication from WP2 authors H. Haanes, S. Dahlgren and A. L. Rudjord from Norway explored pathways during the cold season of 222Rn, 220Rn and thoron progeny within the legacy iron mines and in the niobium legacy mine in the Fen igneous complex in Norway. From...
Sylvain Andresz from the Nuclear Protection Evaluation Center (CEPN), presented the development and the results of the French citizen science pilot project at the 2023 edition of the national congress of the French Society for Radiation Protection (SFRP) which took...
A recent RadoNorm study by Honorio da Silva et al. has found that miners chronic smokers receive 3% smaller lung doses than a non-smoking reference adult male (stipulated by the International Commission on Radiological Protection), and dose for smokers is reduced by...
To complement a recently published article by Michalik et al. on the systematic identification of NORM, Popic et al. have published a new article titled “Tools for harmonized data collection at exposure situations with naturally occurring radioactive materials” in the...
The latest issue of the Spanish magazine “Radioprotección” edited by the Spanish Society for Radiological Protection has published two articles on RadoNorm. One article provides a general overview of the RadoNorm project, while the other focuses on the citizen science...
2 new papers in the framework of WP2 have been recently published: “Influence of Dose Conversions, Equilibrium Factors, and Unattached Fractions on Radon Risk Assessment in Operating and Show Underground Mines” by Skubacz et al compares the results of exposure...
