摘要
The nuclear track detector is an excellent tool as well in large scale radon surveys as in single radon measurements indoors or in soil. In this report there are discussions concerning detectors based on Kodak LR 115-II film. The items are the following: a) Some properties of the detectors, b) The calibration of the detectors, c) The use of the detectors and interpretation of measured radon levels.
