In each location four different depths were taken for soil gas measurements, staring from the ground surface. The results suggested that the largest concentration was 340 ± 22 Bq/m3 for 60cm depth at in Al-Tarfia point sample P3, and the smallest concentration was 26 ± 5 Bq/m3 for surface 0 cm depth at El-Bakria, point sample P5. The results obtained from this study indicate that the region has background radioactivity levels within the natural limits.展开更多

Pseudopotential calculations of the ground state energies of the Lanthanum neutral atom, first and second corresponding cations by means of the variational Monte Carlo (VMC) and the diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) methods...Pseudopotential calculations of the ground state energies of the Lanthanum neutral atom, first and second corresponding cations by means of the variational Monte Carlo (VMC) and the diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) methods are performed. The first and the second ionization potentials have been calculated for Lanthanum. The obtained results are satisfactory and comparable with the available experimental data. Studying the DMC energy of the La atom at different time steps, gave us a time step error of the order 0.0019 Hartree for the smallest time step, τ = 0.0001 Hartree-1, and -0.0104 Hartree for the largest time step, τ = 0.01 Hartree-1. This paper demonstrates the ability of extending the QMC method for lanthanides and obtaining highly accurate results.展开更多
