Examples of nuclide

• Each material consists of a list of (nuclide, fraction) pairs where the nuclide is in the range 1 (hydrogen) through 94 (plutonium).

• With larger spot size the width of this band is increased to not only one nuclide but up to four.

• A nucleus is the kernel of a specific atom, and a nuclide is a certain element.

• In addition to the cross section tables, each nuclide has two tables of data which relate to interpolations in scatter collisions when selecting a new energy and angle of deflection.

• The concern is about whether the site is safe to contain the radioactinides and nuclides which might damage health and poison the environment.

• The radioactivity will remain for much longer in the other nuclides.

• This methodology is applicable to naturally occurring alpha-emitting nuclides and avoids large-scale studies of tumour induction.

• Plutonium nuclides are so low as to be scarcely detectable.
