Measurements of natural radiation with an MDU Liulin type device at ground and in the atmosphere at various conditions in the Arctic region
Abstract Measurements of the natural radiation background with different devices and at various conditions are important from a methodological point of view in order to compare and eventually inter-calibrate different experimental sets, also to provide a reliable basis for improving the existing mod...
