Table 10 Recoil efficiency for radium (eRa) relative to 222Rn (data originate from Krishnaswami et al. 1982) as well as model-derived rates of alpha-recoil supply (Pr) for the geothermal system in Bruchsal
From: Water–rock interactions in the Bruchsal geothermal system by U–Th series radionuclides
Decay | eRa () | Pr (atoms kg−1 s−1) |
|---|---|---|
230Th → 226Ra | 0.961 | 40 |
232Th → 228Ra | 0.769 | 25 |
227Th → 223Ra | 0.961 | 1.7 |
228Th → 224Ra | 0.897 | 41 |
