Abstract

The radon progeny concentration in raindrops as well as in cloud droplets has been determined based on a simplified rainout model from the in situ measurement of gamma-ray intensity using an HPGe detector. The radon concentration in cloud air was deduced from the radon progeny concentration in cloud droplets by applying the Junge's equation. From the measured radon progeny concentration in raindrops the additional exposure rate due to rainfall has been evaluated and compared with the HPIC monitoring data.
