Description

Highlights of work performed under this contract include completion of indoor air studies at an experimental house on the university campus, publication and submission for publication of nation-wide measurements of thoron and thoron daughters, commissioning of an aerosol spectrometer (matching funds provided by NMIMT), and completion of a three-year radon study of housing in Socorro, NM, using passive monitors. Current work centers on a comparison of indoor and outdoor radioactivity and ion measurements, mathematical modeling of radon transport through heterogeneous media, and modeling of physical factors affecting indoor thoron and its daughters
