✦ Synopsis

In this work, the KFK-Passlve radon dosimeter was used to evaluate the radon oon~ntratlon in s~ ~/ptian dwellings. The suz~ ~em includes indoor and outdoor measurmnts during sul~r and winter seasons. Measurements were carried out in different heavly populated towns. Results have shown that indoor radon concentrations in Egypt varies between 47 and 3 Bq/m 3 with a moan value of 13 Bq/m 3 in the winter and 7 in the sumner. The difference between indoor and outdoor was found to be relatively small due to the non-tlght building style in Egypt.

Meesur~nt8 were made also in towns nearby black sand depos£ts at the outlet of the River Nile. No significant dlfferenco was observed in the mean radon concentrations compared with Cairo and Alexandria.
