Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the present work, the radon contamination has been investigated with a high-purity germanium detector and dual ‘gamma + beta’ and ‘alpha’ contamination metre. Radioactive radon (222Rn) and products of its decay were collected by well-known swiping technique. Naturally occurring dust deposited on a plastic surface was collected and the radiation emissions coming from the collected sample were measured and analysed. The main radioactive isotopes contributing to the gamma spectrum were determined. The time behaviour of radon progeny contributing to gamma and alpha activities was investigated and compared with a modelled forecast. The minimal detectable activity when the radon progeny could be determined with a high-purity germanium gamma spectrometer has been established. Also, the minimum activity, measured with a dual contamination metre, has been recognised at which the presence of radon progeny contamination can be determined using gamma spectrometry. A new method is proposed for determining the duration of radon contamination and the time when the contamination occurred. The method is based on the analysis of the relative gamma activities of radon progeny (214Pb and214Bi) measured at different times after the radon contamination.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
