0 a type of radiation with a very short wavelength that passes through most solid objects
1 a type of powerful energy that travels in waves and can go through most solid objects
Densitometry of the response of a new radiochromic film dosimeter to gamma radiation and electron beams.
Sensitometry of the response of a new radiochromic film dosimeter to gamma radiation and electron beams.
The method consists in measuring the intensity of gamma radiation emitted from a source foil after passing through an absorber foil.
In one specific case studied, the optical activity was enhanced by the gamma radiation, yielding a polymer that could act as a template for prebiotic chemistry.
Our running example's geometry consists of a sheet of carbon steel with an aluminum half sphere shell on top of it, and a gamma radiation source just above its center.
The most common predictive method uses a gamma radiation sensor to estimate the coal depth by exploiting the radioactivity of host strata typically found with coal deposits.
Gamma radiation will cover a very wide area, with grave danger to those who are not protected, perhaps up to one-and-three-quarter or two miles.
No respirator can give protection against this external gamma radiation.
