contents Real time radon variation indoors N. Segovia A. Chávez Ciencias de la Tierra Indoor radon controlled laboratory automatic real time data humidity and temperature correlation Real-time indoor radon measurements have been performed in a controlled laboratory located 36 km from Mexico City at3000 m altitude where experimental radon chambers exist. Radon was evaluated with an ALPHAGUARD equipment aboveinstalled at 2 m height from the floor, during a period of two years. Temperature and relative humidity were also recorded. Themeasuring time was programmed to integrate information every hour. The results showed average radon levels of 40 Bq m-3.Radon fluctuations were correlated mainly with local temperature variations in the building. An anticorrelation of radon withhumidity was found in the long term. Radon variations indoors were not influenced by the presence of radon chambers in thelaboratory. 2002 artículo científico 0016-7169 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=56841306 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=568 Geofísica Internacional application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Geofísica Internacional (México) Num.3 Vol.41
