Abstract |
Radon Alpha particles and its daughter products dangers effect to human health is the main motivation behind several studies of measuring radiation in environment including the soil and building material. We measured the activity of Alpha, Beta particles and Gamma Radiation in soil in the middle of Gaza Strip in general form by using five types of detectors. In our survey the middle region of Gaza Strip was divided into four areas, , included Dier El Balah (D), Mughazi (M), Buriej (B) and Nusairat (N), 40 samples where considered in the present work . The samples then were tested and the results presented in this paper. The comparison between the four regions was obtained and showed low radiation level compared with the standard level known by the IAEA and UNCEAR report (U3, U6)[3,7]. This study was conducted to provide us with measurements and extrapolations about radiation concentration in general form in soil. This would enable us to expect the health effects of radiation might cause in the future, especially from the environmental point of view. |
