Abstract
A low cost Si-PIN photodiode-based radon monitor was successfully designed and produced to monitor precursory earthquake indicators in the Northern Anatolian Fault Line. The spatial distribution of 214Po ions was determined by comparing the 7.69MeV 214Po peak in the MCA spectrum and the Geant4 energy distribution of alpha particles at various detector source distances.
