Research abstract
HOUSES IN SEVERAL STATES HAVE HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF RADON. RADON AND ITS DAUGHTERS CAN CAUSE CANCER, AS THEY EMIT APLHAPARTICLES. THERE IS AN URGENT NEED FOR A DEVICE FOR MONITORING RADON. A NOVEL DEVICE FOR MONITORING VERY LOW CONCENTRATIONS OF RADON AND ITS DAUGHTERS IS PROPOSED IN THIS PROJECT. THE DEVICE WILL BE BASED ON SEVERAL PROVEN CONCEPTS.
