Since the very beginning of creation we are surrounded by different forms of radiation. Sunshine and cosmic radiation. The former is of electromagnetic character, while the latter also contains particles of very high energy. Radioactive radiation emanates partly from the earth surface. This often contains uranium and thorium with their daughter products (as radium with the gas radon). It is anticipated that the ions in the air are created mostly by radioactive irradiation from the earth.
