Abstract

Bu
çalışma Türkiye'nin güneydoğusunda bulunan Adıyaman ili ve çevresinde açık
havada soğurulan gama radyasyon doz seviyesini belirlemek için yapılmıştır.
Ölçümler önceden belirlenmiş 94 farklı noktada (Eberline Smart Portable (ESP-2)
model) portatif bir plastik sintilatör kullanılarak yapıldı. Her ölçüm için
üçer okuma yapılmış ve bu üç değerin ortalaması alınarak her bir ölçüm bölgesi
için gama doz değerleri belirlendi. Adıyaman ve çevresinde dış gama dozu
kullanılarak, dış gama ışınlanma hızları 63.5 (nGy/h) ile 380.2  (nGy/h) değerleri arasında ölçüldü ve
ortalama değer 144.3 (nGy/h) olarak hesaplandı. Bu değer  yıllık etkin doz eşdeğeri 177 μSv değerinde
etkin doz ortalamasına karşılık gelmektedir. Adıyaman ve çevresinde yaşam boyu
kanser risk değerleri ICRP 103, BEIR 
VII  ve ICRP 60  için yüzdelik 
ortalamaları sırasıyla sırasıyla 0,071, 0,079 ve 0,089 olarak bulundu.
Elde edilen sonuçlarla Türkiye’de diğer illerde yapılan benzer çalışmaların
sonuçları ve dünya ortalamaları ile karşılaştırılmıştır.

Abstract

This study was conducted to
determine the outdoor
absorbed gamma dose levels in and
around Adiyaman province in the southeast of Turkey. Measurements were
performed using a portable plastic scintillator at 94 different points
(Eberline Smart Portable (ESP-2) model). Three readings were made for each
measurement and the mean of these three values were determined and the gamma
dose values were determined for each measurement region. External gamma
irradiation velocities were measured between 63.5 (nGy/h) and 380.2 (nGy/h)
levels in Adıyaman and surrounding areas and the mean value was calculated as
144.3 (nGy/h). This value corresponds to the average effective dose equivalent
of 177 μSv per year. The lifetime averages of cancer risk values for ICRP 103,
BEIR VII and ICRP 60 were found to be 0.071, 0.079 and 0.089, respectively. The
results obtained with the results of similar studies in other provinces in Turkey
and compared with the world average.
