Re: Radon Survey

[sergio fierman <sergio@bgumail.bgu.ac.il>]

Dear Gustavo,

There are many papers on Radon Surveys, but I remember a very good 
american study, sponsored by EPA, some years ago, and published in 
Physics Today.

If I'll have time I'll look for the exact date of publication.

The subject of correlation between short and long range studies is very 
difficult, due to changing parameters like air temperature, humidity, 
pressure, and year season.

Goog luck!

Sergio
