Determination of the Surface to Volume Ratio in Homes from Measurements of Radon and its Progeny

An activity balance method is proposed for measuring the ratio of surface area to volume in houses. The method is based on the assumption that, after accounting for surface as well as airborne activity. 218Po is nearly in secular equilibrium with its parent, 222Rn. Numerical experiments have shown t...
