Abstract
In order to study the size distribution of a radioactivity due to radon daughters in the environmental atmosphere, an experimental procedure using filters, ion tubes, diffusion batteries and cascade impactors (CASELLA MK2 and ANDERSEN) is presented. A comparison between the experimental results and a theoretical curve, deduced of the attachment theory of the small radioactive ions on atmospheric particles, is carried out.Keywords
