Scottsboro, Alabama - A Continuation of the BEST/MATRR Community Radiation Monitoring Program. This video was recorded on December 3, 2013 off of Gant Rd. during a rain event. High count was 354. At 50 minutes, a 1/3rd disintegration of the radionuclides present was witnessed; half life was reached at 60 minutes.
Surface wipe sample returned to background level at 2 hours, indicating radionuclides other than radon progenies. Gama radiation was present penetrating 4 layers of folded aluminum foil at 50%. This monitoring indicates radon progeny radionuclides and another unidentified radiation source other than radon.
