However, the process of stellar evolution can result in the synthesis of radioactive isotopes.

Article 18 of the Act prohibits introduction into Jordanian territory of any radioactive derivatives, such as radioactive waste or residue, or their use, processing, transport, storage, licensing or burial in that territory.

But it would not obstruct serious health consequences from other radioactive elements.

The risk of nuclear or other radioactive material falling into the wrong hands is all too real.

The word usually refers to visible light, which is visible to the human eye and is responsible for the sense of sight.

In this setup, Schrödinger is in a box with a radioactive sample that, by the laws of quantum mechanics, branches into a state in which it is radiated and a state in which it is not.

90Sr is a radioactive substance that produces beta particles, which penetrate a very short distance into the cornea at the site of the operation.

Recognizing the importance of preventing terrorists from acquiring or developing nuclear weapons or related materials, radioactive materials, equipment and technology,

Many decay into isotopes that are themselves radioactive, so from 1 to 6 (average 3) decays may be required to reach stability.

India is conscious of the threat posed by terrorists, especially the danger that terrorists may acquire and use weapons of mass destruction and radiological materials and sources.

One good example is Ambassador Heinsberg's initiation of a discussion on the new threats that emerge from the possible use of radiological materials by terrorists.

VIENNA World leaders have devoted increasing attention in recent years to the risk of terrorists obtaining nuclear or other radioactive material.

We therefore fully share the objective of preventing the risk of radiological terrorism and support international efforts to deny terrorists any opportunity to acquire and use radiological materials and sources.

Rare earth ores in southern China all except for those in Inner Mongolia contain radioactive substances that pose significant threats to human health and the environment.

There has been an increase in the use of radiolabelled peptide and recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technologies and products in the field of radiopharmacology.

Over the next few days to a week, there will be a radiation cloud, again, going with the wind, and settling down for another 15 or 20 miles out in this case, over Long Island.

The Bill also creates a new offence that is committed if a person demands that another individual supplies him with a radioactive device or radioactive material, or demands access to a nuclear facility.

In 2004, with the assistance of the United States of America, an investigation of orphan sources was conducted in those former industrial and military enterprises of the Soviet Union that used radioactive sources in their operations.

Most cases of attempted trafficking do not involve nuclear material rather, they involve radioactive substances of the type held in hospitals, factories, and other locations all over the world.

The Maišiagala repository, since 1963 operated by the Soviet military, was closed in 1988, but high risk radioactive sources, including caesium, still remain buried at the site.

Regarding the radiological testing of food and potable water, in 2002, along with 349 food samples tested, an annual mentoring of 24 samples were checked for 5 radioisotopes.

Minister of Government Carlos Romero led the operative, which was conducted by special police units. Later, Mr. Romero informed that laboratory tests and analysis determined that the material was not radioactive. It will not produce any risks .

The lessons learned may help not only to reduce the risk of future accidents, but also to facilitate recovery in areas around the world that have been contaminated by radioactive or other toxic substances.

Currently, HEU is used for civilian purposes as a fuel for research and propulsion reactors, in critical assemblies and as the source of certain short lived isotopes, which are produced by bombarding HEU targets.

Recognizing the importance of preventing terrorists from acquiring or developing nuclear weapons or related materials, radioactive materials, equipment and technology and underlining the role of the International Atomic Energy Agency in this regard,

1. Calls upon Member States to support international efforts to prevent the acquisition and use by terrorists of radioactive materials and sources, and, if necessary, suppress such acts, in accordance with their national legal authorities and legislation and consistent with international law

Recognizing the importance of preventing terrorists from acquiring or developing nuclear weapons or related materials, radioactive materials, equipment and technology, and underlining the role of the International Atomic Energy Agency in this regard,

The Conference attaches great importance to resolution 58 60 of the General Assembly on the Prohibition of the Dumping of Radioactive Wastes, and calls upon States to take appropriate measures to prevent any dumping of nuclear or radioactive wastes that would infringe upon the sovereignty of States.

The fact that there has never been a major terrorist attack involving nuclear or other radioactive material should not blind us to the severity of the threat. There is evidence that terrorist groups have tried to acquire the material needed to construct a crude nuclear explosive device, or a dirty bomb.

But if you wanted to know what the perfect energy source is, the perfect energy source is one that doesn't take up much space, has a virtually inexhaustible supply, is safe, doesn't put any carbon into the atmosphere, doesn't leave any long lived radioactive waste it's fusion.

VIENNA World leaders have devoted increasing attention in recent years to the risk of terrorists obtaining nuclear or other radioactive material. That s the good news.

And the reason why they have to go underground is that, if you did this experiment on the surface of the Earth, the same experiment would be swamped by signals that could be created by things like cosmic rays, ambient radio activity, even our own bodies. You might not believe it, but even our own bodies are radioactive enough to disturb this experiment.

Where the environment is concerned article 113 of Act No. 1333 provides for prison terms of up to 10 years for anyone who permits, cooperates or assists in the storage, introduction or transport anywhere in the national territory of toxic, dangerous or radioactive waste or other waste of external origin.
