Measurement and Analysis of Natural Radioactive Elements in Salty Sediments from Central and Southern Iraq

Abstract: Purification of fifteen NaCl samples from natural and different area in the middle and south of Iraq are prepared  and studied the structural characteristics of samples by powder X-ray diffraction analysis at 𝛌=1.542Ã…. The present work considered the specific activities of naturally occurring radioactive materials in salt samples, which are measured and analyzed using high resolution HPGe system. Also, the radiological parameters have been considered in this work. The average specific concentration (in Bq.… Show more

“…Often the new element produced in the radioactive process is also radioactive [3]. The main radionuclides 238 U, 233 Th, and 40 K are always present in the soil, rocks, water, plants, food, and in many building materials. Studies on the soil radioactivity concentration are very important for the assessment of radioactive risks to human health, and for the possible alteration of environmental radioactivity due to human activities.…”
