Dear Madame, Sir
It is a great pleasure for us to invite you to attend the 6th Conference on Protection against Radon at Home and at Work which will be held at the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague from September 13th till 17th, 2010.
The main topic of the Conference is “Radon as an information carrier”.
This letter is the first announcement (please, see the attachment) and call for papers.
For detailed and up-to-date information, please, follow the Conference web site:
www.radon2010.cz
The preceding 5th Conference on Protection against Radon at Home and at Work held in the year 2007 had 80 registered participants from twenty-five countries all over the world. The participants represented a wide range of fields of work related to radon issues: scientists who have dedicated most of their professional life to radon measurement and/or theory, geologists, civil engineers, and epidemiologists.
The selected and peer-reviewed papers were published in the special issue of the Journal of Radiation Protection Dosimetry. Papers of the 6th Conference will be also published in a prestige scientific journal.
The organizers hope that the Conference topics will attract a wide spectrum of the scientific audience to participate at the 6th Conference on Protection against Radon at Home and at Work.
We look forward to meet you in Prague and hope that you will enjoy this venue, offering many opportunities to meet with your peers or colleagues in the unforgettable atmosphere of the Europe's most enchanting city.
Sincerely,
Lenka Thinova and Katerina Rovenska

Natural sources of radiation
The main contribution to the annual effective dose of radiation recieved by general public is coming from natural sources of radiation. The next Figure is taken from the book Radón "Un gas radiactivo de origen natural en su casa" written by Prof. Dr. Luis S. Quindos Poncela (available in pdf in this link, only Spanish version).
