AbstractAbstract
[en] Many filtration problems can be studied by means of radioactive aerosols. For the investigations described in this paper we have chosen the solid disintegration products of radon, the radioactive gas formed from radium, because of the facilities of generation and measurement it offers. Radon and its daughters are in fact always present in the atmosphere in sufficient concentration for certain tests. In order to improve the sensitivity of the measurements, radon from uranium ore can be used. The technique of measuring by counting α particles is rapid and easy to employ. We have thus been able to define a test for filterable substances, and to check filtering installation and individual protection instruments. (author)

Les aerosols radioactifs permettent d'etudier de nombreux problemes de filtration. Pour les etudes decrites dans ce document, nous avons choisi les produits solides de desintegration du radon, gaz radioactif forme a partir du radium en raison des facilites de generation et de mesure. Le radon et ses descendants sont, en effet, toujours presents dans l'atmosphere en concentration suffisante pour certains essais. Pour ameliorer la sensibilite des mesures, il suffit d'utiliser le radon provenant de minerai d'uranium. La technique de mesure par comptage des particules α est rapide et facile a mettre en oeuvre. Nous avons pu ainsi definir un test pour les substances filtrantes et controler les installations de filtration et des appareils de protection individuelle. (auteur)Original Title
