Description

A construction of a new device for monitoring the potential α energy concentration of short-living radon-daughters is described as well as results of operation tests performed in mine conditions. The unit, designated ALFA-31 probe, cooperates with standard mine dust sampler Barbara 3A. It enables simultaneous measurements of dust and radon-daughters concentration including the explosive conditions. (author)
