Abstract | ||
In this research the measurement of Uranium concentration for thirty five soil samples, distributed on (7) regions from south – east Baghdad are taken for five depth for each Locution at (0-3cm, 10cm, 20cm, 30cm, 40cm) by using fission tracks registration in (CR-39) detector obtained by the bombardment of ( U)with thermal neutrons from (Am241- Be) neutron source that has flux of (5 ×103 n cm-2 s-1). The results obtained shows the maximum concentration of Uranium at the AL- Twitha was (0.881±0.086) ppm and minimum concentration at the Salman pak (0.441±0.036) ppm . | ||
