Aircraft instrument for measuring the natural radioactivity of the atmosphere
Abstract
A three-channel onboard device is described which uses the three-point method of measuring the concentration of daughter decay products of radon to determine the alpha and beta radioactivity of atmospheric air. The block diagram of the device is given and discussed.
