Abstract
Samples of radon daughters collected electrostatically from the air in various conditions were analyzed by measuring their decay curves (both integral and for the spectrometrically resolved components). The results are helpful for establishing electrostatic collection as a sampling method in radon daughters measurements.
Keywords: Radon daughters; Radon measurements; Electrostatic collection.
