Abstract
Soil excavation in search of mineral ores provides a means of livelihood to many families in Nigeria. However, the practice was found to be associated with many radiological health concerns that we...
期刊介绍:
The Journal covers a wide range of topics under radiation and plasma sciences. The range of contributions encompasses: radiation physics; radiochemistry, radiobiology and physical effects of medical irradiation, including research on radiative cell degeneration; optical, electrical and mechanical effects of radiation, and their secondary effects such as diffusion and particle emission from surfaces; plasma techniques and plasma phenomena. On plasma science the Journal covers all areas of fusion, space and low temperature plasmas.
