Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Yalvaç’taki baz istasyonu civarında maruz kalınan doğal fon (background) radyasyon oranını tespit etmek için, bir yıl boyunca her ay, Sezyum-137 (137Cs) ile kalibre edilmiş Radiation Alert Monitor 4 Geiger-Mueller LND712 detektörü ile ölçümler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ölçümler, günde üç kez (sabah, öğle ve akşam) olmak koşuluyla her gün, bir yıl boyunca alınmıştır. Radyasyon dozunun yıllık aritmetik ortalaması değişimi 1.92 ile 2.27 mSv/yıl olarak elde edilmiş ve insan vücudunun radyasyon doz limitleri ile karşılaştırılmıştır
