In this work Marangoni-thermal convection promoted by the heat from the radioactive decay of radiogenic particles suspended in fluids is analysed. It was found that owing to the outward flow induced from the radioactive particle, the surrounding material could be pushed outwards from the particle. As a result a power-law distribution of concentration surrounding the particle appears which could reveal the presence of suspended radiogenic particles or can be used as a preliminary visual technique for detection.
