Investigation and correlation of radioactive hazards with magnetic parameters and heavy metals of dwelling sand from two major rivers in south India – A comparative study
Abstract:Cauvery and Palar, two major rivers in Tamilnadu, India, have importance for irrigation, drinking, electricity and river sand is used as a major material of building construction in India. The natural radionuclides such as uranium, thorium and potassium (238U, 232Th, 40K) isotopes are investigated through gamma ray spectrometer with NaI(Tl) detector. The average values of radionuclides and in-situ dose are measured. Related parameters like absorbed dose (ADin & ADout), Annual Effective Doe Equivalent (Ein … Show more
