Description
Arsenic has been reported to be present at trace levels in ground water in different parts of West Bengal and Bangladesh. Since As is a toxic element, it is important to determine the level of As present in the drinking water. PIXE technique has been applied to determine As in ground water collected from different sources. (author)
