Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Radiation damage is a term associated with ionizing radiation. This radiation may take several forms: Cosmic rays and subsequent energetic particles caused by their collision with the atmosphere and other materials. Radioactive daughter products (Radioisotopes) caused by the collision of cosmic rays with the atmosphere and other materials, including living tissues. Streams of energetic particles from a particle accelerator. Energetic particles or gamma radiation (X rays) released from collisions of such particles with a target, as in an X ray machine or incidentally in the use of a particle accelerator. Particles or various types of rays released by radioactive decay of elements, which may be naturally occurring, created by accelerator collisions, or created in a nuclear reactor and extracted for therapeutic or industrial use and released accidentally, or released sententially by a dirty bomb, or accidentally by nuclear accident, or released into the atmosphere, ground, or ocean incidental to the explosion of a nuclear weapon for warfare or nuclear testing.
