QUÉ SIGNIFICA RADIOACTIVE EN INGLÉS

Desintegración radioactiva

Radioactive decay

El decaimiento radiactivo, también conocido como decaimiento nuclear o radiactividad, es el proceso por el cual un núcleo de un átomo inestable pierde energía emitiendo radiación ionizante. Un material que emite espontáneamente este tipo de radiación -que incluye la emisión de partículas alfa, partículas beta y rayos gamma- se considera radiactivo. El decaimiento radiactivo es un proceso estocástico a nivel de átomos individuales, en el que, de acuerdo con la teoría cuántica, es imposible predecir cuándo un átomo particular se desintegrará. Sin embargo, la probabilidad de que un átomo dado se desintegre es constante en el tiempo. Para un gran número de átomos, la tasa de decaimiento para la recolección es computable a partir de las constantes de decaimiento medidas de los nucleidos. Hay muchos tipos diferentes de decaimiento radiactivo. Una decadencia o pérdida de energía se produce cuando un átomo con un tipo de núcleo, llamado radionucleido padre, se transforma en un átomo con un núcleo en un estado diferente o en un núcleo diferente que contiene diferentes números de protones y neutrones. Cualquiera de estos productos se denomina nuclide hija.

Radioactive decay, also known as nuclear decay or radioactivity, is the process by which a nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting ionizing radiation. A material that spontaneously emits this kind of radiation—which includes the emission of alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays—is considered radioactive. Radioactive decay is a stochastic process at the level of single atoms, in that, according to quantum theory, it is impossible to predict when a particular atom will decay. However, the chance that a given atom will decay is constant over time. For a large number of atoms, the decay rate for the collection is computable from the measured decay constants of the nuclides. There are many different types of radioactive decay. A decay, or loss of energy, results when an atom with one type of nucleus, called the parent radionuclide, transforms into an atom with a nucleus in a different state, or to a different nucleus containing different numbers of protons and neutrons. Either of these products is named the daughter nuclide.

Walther Bothe

The Laboratory for Radioactivity consisted of only two rooms at the time; at a later date, when tests of radioactive substances became more extensive, it expanded into four rooms.

2

David R. Brower

Perhaps most ridiculous of all is the suggestion that we 'keep' our radioactive garbage for the use of our descendants. This 'solution', I think, requires an immediate poll of the next 20,000 generations.

David R. Brower

There are many different kinds of radioactive waste and each has its own half-life so, just to be on the safe side and to simplify matters, I base my calculations on the worst one and that's plutonium.

4

James Buchan

For 50 years, nuclear power stations have produced three products which only a lunatic could want: bomb-explosive plutonium, lethal radioactive waste and electricity so dear it has to be heavily subsidised. They leave to future generations the task, and most of the cost, of making safe sites that have been polluted half-way to eternity.

5

William S. Burroughs

Gentle reader, the Fountain of Youth is radioactive, and those who imbibe its poisonous heavy waters will suffer the hideous fate of decaying metal. Yet almost without exception, the wretched idiot inhabitants of our benighted planet would gulp down this radioactive excrement if it were offered.

Garik Israelian

Connection between life and radioactive nuclei is straightforward. No life without tectonic activity, without volcanic activity. And we know very well that geothermal energy is mostly produced by decay of uranium, thorium, and potassium.

9

Annie Jacobsen

In 1957, with the arms race in full swing, the Department of Defense had decided it was just a matter of time before an airplane transporting an atomic bomb would crash on American soil, unleashing a radioactive disaster the likes of which the world had never seen.

Ed Markey

We know that al Qaeda is seeking radioactive materials and technology to launch a devastating attack, and that hundreds of radioactive sources have been lost or stolen in the U.S. and around the world.
