ABSTRACT:
A device and method for measuring radon gas concentration in an environment containing radon. The device includes a radon gas-adsorbing surface, which preferably has a capacity to adsorb radon at 90% relative humidity at 23.degree. C. of at least 80% of its capacity to adsorb radon at a 0% relative humidity at 23.degree. C.; and a radioactive decay-sensitive surface which registers incident particles or such rays from radioactive decay of radon and its daughters. The decay-sensitive surface is placed either adjacent to, or spaced from, the radon-adsorbing surface by less than 5 cm.
