Natural Radioactive Decay

, 2020
This chapter is primarily concerned with natural radioactive decay. Generally speaking, there are two types of natural radioactive decays: alpha decays “which contain two neutrons and two protons” emitted from radon gas; additionally, nuclear decay by emission of photons (γ-decay).

Thermal‐induced fracture evolution and acoustic signature of Beishan granite: Insights into tensile strength of barrier system for high‐level radioactive waste disposal

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

Tuning Stability and Optoelectronic Properties of CsSnI3 Via Rare‐Earth Doping

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Sn‐based halide perovskites are promising optoelectronic materials but are limited by poor stability. Thus, rare‐earth elements (RE) doping in CsSnI3 addresses this limitation, significantly enhancing thermodynamic, mechanical, and chemical stability, while simultaneously tuning electronic characteristics and modulating optical responses in the ...

Progress report on new epilepsy treatments: A summary of the Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices (EILAT XVIII). I. Treatments in preclinical and early clinical development

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the last 34 years, the Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices has provided an interactive forum for stakeholders to discuss investigational and recently licensed treatments for seizures and epilepsy. The Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices (EILAT XVIII) took place in Madrid, Spain, on May 3 ...

From a Probabilistic PBEE Framework to Risk‐Targeted Structural Design With Cascading Hazards: Engineering Application for Seismic–Radiological Safety

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Earthquake‐induced damage of structures can trigger cascading hazards, linking structural performance to nonstructural consequences. In current engineering practice, these two aspects are typically addressed separately, limiting the ability to account for such coupled effects in design.

Assessment of Natural Radioactivity Level in Rice Available in Erbil City, Iraq, and Its Radiological Indices

Zanco Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences
Natural radioactivity is present in all food types, including rice, and gradually enters the body through the digestive tract. An important metric for estimating population exposure from natural radionuclide intake during regular food consumption is the
