Measurement of the concentrations of fluorine in the soil of different areas of Savar and its effects on Environment

To find out the concentration of Fluorine, soil samples were collected from ten different agricultural lands of different places of Savar which were measured by using proton induced gamma rays emission (PIGE) technique. The samples were irradiated by 2.5MeV proton beam from 3MV Van de Graaff acceler...
