Determination of radium 226 and 228 in water

Creators

Description

Usually, only radium 226 is measured in water since determination of radium 228 is not easy at the natural levels. A technique has therefore been developed to measure, at the same time and at low radioactivity levels, two radionuclides most often associated in water and with similar toxicity. Computer data processing brings significant improvements though calculation can be manually done

Abstract (French)

Habituellement, seul le radium 226 est mesure dans l'eau, car, aux niveaux naturels, la mesure du radium 228 n'est pas simple. L'interet de la technique proposee est de mesurer a la fois, et a faible niveau d'activite, deux radionucleides le plus souvent associes dans l'eau et qui ont une toxicite semblable. Bien que les calculs puissent etre faits manuellement, l'informatique apporte des ameliorations importantes
