radon is a gas that seeps into homes from radioactive rocks buried deep underground. If inhaled, it can cause cancer. Fortunately, it is easily dealt with.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/medical_notes/96643.stm

Extractions: Our bodies are constantly exposed to radiation from a variety of natural sources. This natural background radiation is in the food we eat, it is in the soil, and reaches us from the stars via cosmic rays. But the single biggest source of radiation in our lives is radon gas, which seeps into people's homes from radioactive rocks buried deep underground. A test will establish the concentration of radon in the home For most UK residents, radon will account for a half of their total annual radiation dosage. Even so, this represents very little risk: the dosage is well within the safety limits set by the International Committee on Radiological Protection. But in some parts of the country radon levels are raised because of the local geological conditions. It has been estimated that 50,000 people in Cornwall, Northamptonshire, Derbyshire and Scotland have higher than average concentrations of radon in their homes.

Exposure to high concentrations increases the risk of lung cancer. The Health Protection Agency (HPA) recommends that radon levels should be reduced in homes where the annual average is at or above 200 becquerels per cubic metre (200 Bq m ). This is termed the Action Level. The HPA defines radon Affected Areas as those with 1% chance or more of a house having a radon concentration at or above the Action Level of 200 Bq m The joint HPA-BGS radon potential dataset provides the current definitive map of radon Affected Areas in England and Wales. It was created jointly by the HPA and the BGS using long-term radon measurements made in over 460 000 homes across England and Wales combined with digital geological mapping. The in-house radon measurements have been used without prejudicing confidentiality undertakings to householders. The dataset includes a 75 m buffer: 50 m to allow for potential inaccuracies of geological lines and 25 m to allow for the average extent of homes located using the ordnance survey ADDRESS_POINT

U.S. Surgeon General Richard H. Carmona warned the American public about the risks of breathing indoor radon by issuing a national health advisory today.

Extractions: Thursday, January 13, 2005 Contact: HHS Press Office U.S. Surgeon General Richard H. Carmona warned the American public about the risks of breathing indoor radon by issuing a national health advisory today. The advisory is meant to urge Americans to prevent this silent radioactive gas from seeping into their homes and building up to dangerous levels. Dr. Carmona issued the advisory during a two-day Surgeon General's Workshop on Healthy Indoor Environment. "Indoor radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States and breathing it over prolonged periods can present a significant health risk to families all over the county," Dr. Carmona said. "It's important to know that this threat is completely preventable. Radon can be detected with a simple test and fixed through well-established venting techniques." Radon is an invisible, odorless and tasteless gas, with no immediate health symptoms, that comes from the breakdown of uranium inside the earth. Simple test kits can reveal the amount of radon in any building. Those with high levels can be fixed with simple and affordable venting techniques. According to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates, one in every 15 homes nationwide have a high radon level at or above the recommended radon action level of 4 picoCuries (pCi/L) per liter of air.

Extractions: March, 1988 Radon, first discovered in 1910, is a colorless, odorless, radioactive gas formed from the radioactive decay of radium. Radium in turn is formed from uranium which is present to some extent in all rocks but is most common in those of granitic composition. It is not unusual for granites to contain as much as 3.9 parts per million uranium and .0013 parts per billion radium. When rocks weather, these radioactive elements find their way into the soil. Radon has a half-life of only 3.8 days; consequently, most of the gas decays harmlessly in the ground or atmosphere. Under certain circumstances, radon can migrate through the soil and enter homes in quantities sufficient to become a health hazard. In order for this to happen, there must be a source of radon, the soil must be permeable, and there must be a conduit into the home. The most common points of entry are porous basement walls, cracks in concrete floors or slabs, and openings around utility accesses. Certain home sites exhibit reasonably predictable radon problems. These are : Homes built in areas where the rocks contain greater than normal amounts of uranium.

Extractions: Radon Transform The Radon transform is an integral transform whose inverse is used to reconstruct images from medical CT scans. A technique for using Radon transforms to reconstruct a map of a planet's polar regions using a spacecraft in a polar orbit has also been devised (Roulston and Muhleman 1997). The Radon transform can be defined by where is the slope of a line and is its intercept. The inverse Radon transform is where is a Hilbert transform . The transform can also be defined by where is the perpendicular distance from a line to the origin and is the angle formed by the distance vector Using the identity where is the Fourier transform , gives the inversion formula The Fourier transform can be eliminated by writing where is a weighting function such as Nievergelt (1986) uses the inverse formula where Ludwig's inversion formula expresses a function in terms of its Radon transform. and are related by The Radon transform satisfies superposition linearity scaling rotation , with rotation by angle and skewing (Durrani and Bisset 1984).
