Radium isotopes of thermal mineral waters in Karlovy Vary: The relationship of water to the surrounding rock

Publication at Faculty of Science |

Abstract

In the waters of Karlovy Vary thermal structure were measured activity of all natural isotopes of radium (223Ra, 224Ra, 226Ra, 228Ra). Set volume activity of radium isotopes are high, the highest activity of the primary Vřídlo (3.05 Bq l-1).

On the basis of the ratio can be calculated 228Ra/226Ra for ekvilibrace with rocks (granite Carlsbad), the situation is complicated by secondary processes.
