Abstrakt: Examines the effects of dust loading on the response of continuous air monitors. Need for a change of filter if the energy resolution deteriorates; Tagging of aerosol particles of various sizes with radon decay products to serve as surrogates for radioactive aerosols of interest such as plutonium or uranium.
