Dose equivalents of exposure to radon and its breakdown products in workers at the Jáchymov Spa

Hybs, K.

Casopis Lekaru Ceskych 130(22-23): 652-655

1991

PMID: 1786585
Document Number: 379246
The author presents an account on the trend of exposure of staff to radon breakdown products when administering radon baths since 1962. The contemporary values of annual dosage equivalents of bath attending staff are less than 1/20th than originally. The author estimates also the exposure of other workers in the spa caused by exhalations from the footwall of the buildings. The author mentions the results of assessment of potential energy of alpha-radiation of radon fission products in the atmosphere obtained by different methods of assessment.
