Abstract

Few and sporadic measurements are so far available on the characteristics of indoor radon and thoron daughters in typical Mediterranean areas.

Preliminary data show both a significant influence of ventilation on indoor Rn and Tn daughter concentration and a non-negligible contribution of Tn daughters to the annual effective dose of inhabitants.
