AbstractAbstract
[en] The results of a survey of 222Rn and its short-lived radon daughters in 343 homes in the rural community of March Township, near Ottawa, Canada, are reported. Aerial gamma-ray spectrometry carried out over the 90-km2 area showed the presence of up to 5 ppM uranium. The arithmetic average value of the radon daughters in the basement of these homes was 0.014 +- 0.026 WL (working level). From these measurements the equilibrium factor between radon and its daughters was shown to be 0.38 +- 0.19
