Thoron activity concentration in Malaysian soil gas: geogenic impact assessment

Given the rather short half-life of thoron (220Rn), at 56 s, its contribution to radiation exposure is often overlooked. Nevertheless, in a thorium (232Th) rich environment potential hazard does exist, in particular regarding prolonged duration exposures to 220Rn and its short-lived alpha-particle e...
