Abstract

The concentration of natural gamma emiting 238U, 232Th and 40K radionuclides in beach sediments along north east coast of Tamilnadu India has ben caried out using sa NaI(Tl) gamma ray spectrometric technique with an aim of an evaluating radiation hazards to mankind, To ases the radiological hazards of coastal sediments, the absorbed and anual efective dose equivalence are calculated. The results of this tudy can be used as a baseline for future research.
