Radioactive indium-111 ( in very small amounts on a chemical basis ) is used in nuclear medicine tests, as a radiotracer to follow the movement of labeled proteins and white blood cells in the body.

: Radioactive or toxic chemical sites associated with its former defense industries and test ranges are found throughout the country and pose health risks for humans and animals ; industrial pollution is severe in some cities ; because the two main rivers which flowed into the Aral Sea have been diverted for irrigation, it is drying up and leaving behind a harmful layer of chemical pesticides and natural salts ; these substances are then picked up by the wind and blown into noxious dust storms ; pollution in the Caspian Sea ; soil pollution from overuse of agricultural chemicals and salination from poor infrastructure and wasteful irrigation practices

* Radioactive labels The use of radioactive isotopes of chemical elements, such as carbon-14, to allow the in vivo tracking of chemical compounds.

The book was a source of inspiration to David Hahn, nicknamed " the Radioactive Boy Scout " by the media, who tried to collect a sample of every chemical element and also built a model nuclear reactor, which led to the involvement of the authorities.

Radioactive tracers are also used to determine the location of fractures created by hydraulic fracturing in natural gas production.

Radioactive tracers form the basis of a variety of imaging systems, such as PET scans, SPECT scans and Technetium scans.

Radioactive tracers are also used to study lipoprotein metabolism in humans and experimental animals.

Radioactive waste typically comprises a number of radioisotopes: unstable configurations of elements that decay, emitting ionizing radiation which can be harmful to humans and the environment.

Radioactive decay is the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by emitting ionizing particles and radiation.

Radioactive decay is the process by which an atomic nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting ionizing particles ( ionizing radiation ).

Radioactive material must be monitored and carefully stored to shield workers and the environment from its gamma rays.

Radioactive medical waste tends to contain beta particle and gamma ray emitters.

Radioactive nuclei ( radionuclides ) commonly emit gamma rays in the energy range from a few keV to ~ 10 MeV, corresponding to the typical energy levels in nuclei with reasonably long lifetimes.

Radioactive krypton-81 is the product of reactions with cosmic rays that strike the atmosphere, along with some of the other isotopes of krypton.

Radioactive particles can be carried for considerable distances.

Radioactive isotopes must capture another neutron faster than they can undergo beta decay in order to create abundance peaks at germanium, xenon, and platinum.

It can also be armed with a Radioactive Projectile which damages all in its sight, it is good against stronger Units.

Radioactive decay could also provide the energy necessary for such activity, as cryovolcanoes can emit water mixed with ammonia, which would melt at-95 ° C and create an extremely cold liquid that would flow out of the volcano.

* CBRNE ( Chemical, Biological, Radioactive, Nuclear & Explosive )-Specially-trained Toronto EMS paramedics operate together with elements of the Toronto Police Service and Toronto Fire Services to provide a joint-service Terrorism / Hazardous Materials Response team.

Radioactive potassium-40 is common in micas, feldspars, and hornblendes, though the closure temperature is fairly low in these materials, about 125 ° C ( mica ) to 450 ° C ( hornblende ).

Radioactive decay accounts for about of the Earth's internal heat, powering the geodynamo and plate tectonics.

The event became a short-lived media sensation, and a book by Ken Silverstein called The Radioactive Boy Scout was written about the incident and published in 2004.

Following the layoff of 800 employees on March 31, 2009, the consortium had about 100 employees remaining on the project prior to all being laid off by the end of the 2010 financial year due to zero funding in the 2011 budget for the Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management.

In one scene, Comic Book Guy sends a message to other Internet nerds about who will star in the new Radioactive Man film.

Radioactive beams of specific isotopes are widely used in the fields of experimental physics, biology and materials science.

* Radioactive decay leading to specific radiogenic daughter nuclides.

Radioactive tracer compounds are used to observe the function of various organs and body systems.

Radioactive waste that is covered under other international control systems and wastes from the normal operation of ships is not covered.

For example, a player might obtain the result " Radioactive Yeti " and gain the powers associated with the " Radioactive " and " Yeti " origins.

Geiger detectors are still used as a general purpose alpha / beta portable Radioactive contamination measurement and detection instrument, owing to their relatively low cost, their robustness and their relatively high detection efficiency ; particularly with high energy beta particles.

Radioactive sulfur-35 was used to label the protein sections of the T2 phage, because sulfur is contained in amino acids but not DNA.

Radioactive fallout became less of an issue and the nuclear disarmament movement went into decline for some years.

* Radioactive contamination, resulting from 20th century activities in atomic physics, such as nuclear power generation and nuclear weapons research, manufacture and deployment.

Radioactive sodium-24 may be formed by neutron activation during operation, posing a slight radiation hazard ; the radioactivity stops within a few days after removal from the reactor.

# The Radioactive Camel Affair by Peter Leslie.

The case challenged a portion of the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985.

Radioactive fallout from the accident concentrated near Belarus, Ukraine and Russia and at least 350, 000 people were forcibly resettled away from these areas.

Radioactive wastes are wastes that contain radioactive material.

Radioactive wastes are usually by-products of nuclear power generation and other applications of nuclear fission or nuclear technology, such as research and medicine.

Radioactive waste is hazardous to most forms of life and the environment, and is regulated by government agencies in order to protect human health and the environment.

A summary of the amounts of radioactive wastes and management approaches for most developed countries are presented and reviewed periodically as part of the International Atomic Energy Agency ( IAEA ) Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management.

Radioactive waste comes from a number of sources.

LLNL also receives funding from DOE ’ s Office of Science, Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management, and Office of Nuclear Energy.
