A radon facility at Naples University: Features and first tests

A radon calibration facility was developed at Naples University (Italy). It consists of an exposure chamber, a radon reference monitor and an apparatus suitable for radon circulation and air climatic control. The parameters that are possible to change and control are carrier gas, radon activity, gas pressure, temperature, and humidity. The characterization of the facility is actually underway to verify its reliability and stability with respect to various parameters of interest.
