title: Determination of 210Pb concentration in the air at ground-level by gamma-ray spectrometry.
abstract: 210Pb activity concentrations in the air of Palermo were determined by gamma-ray spectrometric analysis of 323 particulate samples collected in the period September 1995-December 1996. For each sample, the air filtered through a cellulose filter paper was 8600 m3 on average. The values of the daily activity concentration of 210Pb were ranging from 136 to 3390 microBq/m3.
