Radon-induced Ionization

Radon-Induced Ionization is a natural atmospheric ionization process in which the radioactive decay of radon gas and its progeny emits alpha particles that ionize surrounding air molecules, thereby generating free ions and electrons that contribute to the electrical conductivity of the lower atmosphere under fair-weather conditions.
