| Abstract | ||
| The natural background radiation which affects human beings can be divided into two types, external radiation and internal radiation. The total equivalent dose affecting to the population is greater than all other sources. The most important of these natural sources is the radon and its daughter hazard. The investigation in Diyala city (Iraq) shows that the radon concentration is 31 Bq m-3 which is higher than that observed in Karbala city 14 Bq m-3 (Al-khalifa et al 1993) and in An Nasiryah city 15 Bq m-3 (Al-khalifa , 2006). Interpretation of this measurement interms of building material as well as the emanation of radon from ground surface is also discussed. | ||
