چکیده انگلیسی
The activity concentrations and the gamma-absorbed dose rates of the terrestrial naturally occurring radio nuclides viz. 226Ra, 232Th and 40K were determined in soil samples collected from some areas of Punjab and Himachal Pradesh, using gamma ray spectrometry. The soil activity ranges from 18.22 to 90.30Bqkg-1 for 226Ra, 34.80 to 124.68Bqkg-1 for 232Th and 80.42 to 181.41Bqkg-1 for 40K with mean values of 57, 87 and 143Bqkg-1, respectively. The concentrations of these radionuclides are compared with the available data from other countries. The measured activity concentration of 226Ra and 232Th in soil is higher and for 40K is lower than the world average. Radium equivalent activities are calculated for the analyzed samples to assess the radiation hazards arising due to the use of these soil samples in the construction of dwellings. All the soil samples have radium equivalent activities lower than the limit set in the OECD report (370Bqkg-1). The overall mean outdoor terrestrial gamma dose rate is 86.54nGyh-1 and the corresponding outdoor annual effective dose is 0.11Â mSv. The activity concentration of 238U has also been determined using fission track technique and the values range from 1.18 to 5.12Â ppm with mean value of 2.13Â ppm. The content of radioactive elements in the soil of Palmpur area is found to be more compared with the samples from the other study areas of Punjab and Himachal Pradesh.
