On the stochastic nature of the acquisition of electrical charge and radioactivity by aerosol particles

The distributions of charge and radioactivity in an aerosol arising from the stochastic nature of the acquisition processes are discussed. Three illustrations are given. The electrical charge distribution resulting from the unipolar diffusion charging of a monodisperse aerosol is derived. The kineti...

Description
Summary:The distributions of charge and radioactivity in an aerosol arising from the stochastic nature of the acquisition processes are discussed. Three illustrations are given. The electrical charge distribution resulting from the unipolar diffusion charging of a monodisperse aerosol is derived. The kinetics of the adsorption of radioactive iodine and RaA on a monodisperse aerosol and the resultant distribution of radioactivity are described.
