Abstract
A scheme of fractionation of210Pb,210Bi,210Po forms present in air aerosols based on the combination of methods of radiochemical analysis and radiometric deteemination with leaching by different agents has been developed. The ratio between the210Pb,210Bi,210Po present in the aerosol samples was determined experimentally. Carbonate of210Pb, and210Po and210Bi forms connected with oxides prevai in the aerosol component of atmospheric air.
