: 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

This is often the subject of parody, for example in the Simpsons episode " Radioactive Man " where the onomatopoeic words are replaced with snuh !, newt!

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

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.

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 ( some home smoke detectors are classified as radioactive waste because they contain very small amounts of a radioactive isotope of americium-see: Disposing of Smoke Detectors ).

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

* The two main characters of the film Radioactive Dreams are named Philip and Marlowe ; Philip narrates it in a similar style as Chandler's novels.

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

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

Radioactive tracer isotopes are injected with hydraulic fracturing fluid to determine the injection profile and location of fractures created by hydraulic fracturing.

Radioactive isotopes from ISAC are sent to TITAN to undergo cooling, charge-breeding and trapping.

Other live acts that have appeared are Bandulu, Green Velvet, Technasia, Speedy J and Radioactive Man.

Radioactive isotopes of uranium, thorium and potassium are the primary contributors to this decay heat, and this Radioactive decay is the primary source of heat from which Geothermal energy derives.

The Vallecitos site includes the Radioactive Materials Laboratory where post-irradiation examinations are done.

Radioactive tracer isotopes are injected with hydraulic fracturing fluid to determine the injection profile and location of fractures created by hydraulic fracturing.

Bart and Milhouse are thrilled to hear that a film version of their favorite comic book series, Radioactive Man, is in production.

The scene in the new Radioactive Man film where Radioactive Man and Fallout Boy are captured in Aquaworld is a reference to the film Waterworld.

An analysis of the isotopes produced, performed at the National Institute of Radioactive Elements in Belgium has shown that the Mo-99 samples produced at ARGUS are characterized by an extreme radiochemical purity, i. e. the impurity content in them is lower than the allowable limits by 2 – 4 orders of magnitude.

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 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 Iodine-131 is used in patients with papillary or follicular thyroid cancer for ablation of residual thyroid tissue after surgery and for the treatment of thyroid cancer.

* Radioactive tracer, a substance containing a radioisotope that is used for tracking purposes

[...] Really, this game could have been somewhat interesting if the developers used the Radioactive Man character to parody existing comics and comic eras — as they did in the show and the Radioactive Man comic book — but that's asking way too much of a licensed 8-bit game.

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

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

He was the executive producer for three other episodes from season seven: " Lisa the Vegetarian ", " Radioactive Man " and " Team Homer ".

The municipality is mainly known for the Borssele Nuclear Power Station and the Central Storage For Radioactive Waste.

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.

* Personnel and environmental monitoring for Radioactive contamination

Radioactive particles can be carried for considerable distances.

* Radioactive decay for the mathematics of chains of exponential processes with differing constants

Found by teammate Radioactive Man ( who remarks that Baldwin is a " broken toy, forced to live in a world he was never meant for "), Penance is eventually brought back to the Thunderbolts Mountain where he experiences another episode of violence when he brutally assaults one of the prisoners after he taunts Baldwin for his role in the Stamford tragedy.

Despite the new line-up, many of the themes of the original series continued ; in particular, Songbird's decision to cripple Bullseye in retaliation for the villain crippling the super-hero Jack Flag, Norman Osborn's own struggle for redemption as he claimed, and the growing friendship between Songbird and Radioactive Man.

The group deports Radioactive Man back to China after Norman has his work visa revoked, and Moonstone has Penance sent to a corrupt maximum security mental institution where he would be held prisoner for the rest of his natural life.

DRO is an acronym which stands for " Discos Radioactivos Organizados ", that means " Radioactive Records Organized ".
