摘要
Cylindrical diffusion chamber for radon measurement equipped with nuclear track detector(CR-39) and electret is considered in this work. Electret is electrostatic analogous of permanent magnet which preserves constant and strong electric field for long time period. Electrets were used to attract radon progeny formed in a cup where CR-39 was placed for radon measurements. In this way the sensitivity of detector could be increased by bringing progeny just in front of detector in more convenient measuring geometry. Influence of distance between electret and detector on sensitivity of such equipment has been investigated theoretically. Different geometrical setups of detector and electret were tested in order to optimize this kind of device. Some results are presented in this report.
