Discovery of Radioactivity [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1948
I AM surprised that Prof. Becquerel should have read into a passing reference to his distinguished father‘s work, in my review of Prof. Gamow‘s book, any suggestion that the discovery of radioactivity was in any way "fortuitous". No such suggestion was intended.

An alternative method for radioactivity measurement in quantitative bone SPECT/CT imaging

open access: yesScience Progress, 2021
Bone scintigraphy with combined single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and computed tomography (CT) has become widely used for the detection of bone metastases.

Generation of nanoparticles in the concentrated energy (laser beam) and gas flow

open access: yesAviation, 2004
The method of generation and selection of small nanoparticles in the airflow is considered in this paper. To melt the material (stainless steel), a concentrated energy flow – a pulsed solid‐state laser beam – was used.

Study on Separation of Rhenium, a Surrogate Element of Fissiogenic Technetium, from Aqueous Matrices Using Ion-Selective Extraction Chromatographic Resins

open access: yesSeparations, 2023
Long-lived fissiogenic technetium, 99Tc (half-life, 2.11 × 105 yrs), is a byproduct of the 235U and 239Pu fission in nuclear reactors and is a major component in nuclear waste.

Time changes of dose equivalent rate above the soil surface as indication of natural attenuation processes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2019
Eight sites in the Fukushima contaminated area were surveyed for long-term changes in D-shuttle dose equivalent rate above the soil surface during 2015–2017. D-shuttle readings in most cases decreased faster than if due to radioactive decay only.

The neglected activation of tantalum in reduced activation materials

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2023
Due to the expression of “reduced activation”, the severe radioactivity of tantalum (Ta) after neutron irradiation in early decay years is easily neglected. In the presented study, after an irradiation of only 0.3 dpa by fission neutron and followed by a

Radioactive Eggs. II. Distribution of Radioactivity in the Yolks [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1951
Summary(1) The distribution of radioactivity in the yolks of eggs laid by a hen fed sodium acetate-1-C14 has been determined. (2) The radioactivity appears in all fractions of all yolks in the following order of increasing specific activity: protein, glycerol, phospholipids, fatty acids, cholesterol.

Equilibrium status of naturally occurring 226Ra with radon daughters and estimation of 238U activity from 235U using natural radioactivity ratio of 238U/235U in soil around Rawatbhata, Rajasthan

open access: yesRadiation Protection and Environment, 2022
Equilibrium status among 226Ra and radon daughters was studied in soil samples around Rawatbhata, Rajasthan. It was found that the increase in radioactivity of 214Bi (radon daughter) due to complete radon buildup in the sealed container is within 15 ...

Retention of 2011 Fukushima Dai-ichi NPP accident-derived 137Cs in the northern North Pacific–Bering Sea

open access: yesScientific Reports
Tracing soluble radionuclides is critical for understanding the mechanisms underlying the transport of soluble materials in marine environments. In the present study, we investigated the surface distribution of the concentrations (activities) of 134Cs ...
