Description
Full text: Flow-through accumulator type emanometers are routinely used for radon and thoron activity flux measurement Performance of one such device was tested through calibration with certified standards, intercomparison, repeated measurements under controlled conditions, and field applications. This paper describes the findings and identifies sensitive parameters which may lead to uncertainties, particularly for usage of such equipment for long term applications in a variety of lab and field situations
