Measurement of the environmental radiation at the Physics Department of Tishreen University

  • 1. Tishreen Univ., Dept. of Physics, Lattakia (Syrian Arab Republic)

Description

We present here some results obtained from the measurement of the environmental radiation at the Physics Department of Tishreen University, in the energy range 50 KeV - 2.8 MeV, by using a compact scintillation NaI(Ti) detector, low-time recovery and reliable. The detected radiation is essentially due to cosmic radiation and to the airborne radioactivity, but no radiation from other sources have been found. (Author)
