dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study is to determine the concentration of Radon and its annual effective dose at the NigdeMuseum and in a number of historical places namely the Sungur Bey, the Alaeddin, the Disari mosque andthe Ak Medrese Culture House in Cappadocia, Nigde, Turkey. Nuclear track detector CR-39 were used toascertain how much Radon concentration affects the people who are working in or visiting such places.Nuclear track detectors CR-39 were used for measurement for 132 days at the Nigde Museum, and for 63days in the historical places. The exposed nuclear track detectors were then sent to the Sarayköy NuclearResearch and Training Center (SANAEM) to determine of Radon-222. The average Radon concentrationresults obtained for the Nigde Museum, the Sungur Bey, the Alaeddin, the Disari mosques and the AkMedrese Culture House were 13.0±2.94 Bq/m3, 31.67±3.86 Bq/m3, 52.0±5.72 Bq/m3, 42.67±19.34 Bq/m3and 31.0±4.55 Bq/m3 respectively. The average effective dose of Radon was calculated for the NigdeMuseum, the Sungur Bey, the Alaeddin, the Disari mosques and the Ak Medrese Culture House in Nigdeand was found to be approximately 0.137 mSv/y, 0.062 mSv/y, 0.103 mSv/y, 0.084 mSv/y and 0.327 mSv/yrespectively.
