Abstract
Size distribution measurements of radon progeny aerosol particles were perf ormed using a screen-type diffusion battery method for both indoor and outd oor air in Japan. The results were as follows; a large part of the peak rad ii were distributed between 0.1 and 0.2 mu m. The geometrical standard devi ation was 2-3. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
