Annotation
In this study, we investigated the changes in the specific activity of natural radionuclides potassium-40 (K40), thorium-232 (Th232), radium-226 (Ra226), and anthropogenic cesium-137 (Cs137) in the soil composition of the Samarkand and Navoi regions. The primary objective of this research was to evaluate the impact of uranium production enterprises on the variations in the levels of natural radionuclides 226Ra, 232Th, 40K, and technogenic 137Cs found in soil samples collected from the Navoi region. Additionally, we conducted a comparative analysis of the specific activity of radionuclides 226Ra, 232Th, 40K, and 137Cs in samples not influenced by uranium production.
