ABSTRACT

This paper reviews the method of calculation, and the criteria involved, in the determination of the maximum permissible concentrations of inert gases in ambient air. The results show that because the original calculations for Xe-133 included both photon and particulate dose, the permissible levels for Xe-127 are only slightly less than the levels established for Xe-133.
