The distribution of thorium in the whole gas mantle sample was studied by using alpha auto-radiography technique through detecting alphas emitted by thorium and its daughters. This was done by sandwiching the mantle between two sheets of nuclear track detectors type PM-355 super grade and x-ray films for 21 days each. The technique showed that thorium is distributed in all of the mantle fabric and both x-ray film and nuclear track detector showed good resolution.  ISSN : 1319-1047  Journal Name : Engineering Sciences Journal  Volume : 13  Issue Number : 1  Publishing Year : 1421 AH 2001 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Thursday, February 4, 2010  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email محمد إبراهيم الجار الله AL-JARALLAH, MOHAMED I.
