  2.  History • 1895. Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovers a type of electromagnetic radiation which he calls X-rays • 1896. Henri Becquerel discovers the principle of radioactive decay when he exposes photographic plates to uranium • 1897. Sir Joseph John Thomson first describes his discovery of the electron

  3.  History • 1898. Marie and Pierre Curie announce discovery of two substances they call polonium and radium. • 1899. Ernest Rutherford classifies two types of radiation, alpha rays and beta rays. • Henri Becquerel discovers that radiation from uranium consists of charged particles and can be deflected by magnetic fields.

  25. In a simple decay, if the number of decaying nucleus is N(t)

  26. In a simple decay, if the number of decaying nucleus is N(t) In a general case, the activity is proportional to the number of decaying atoms

  27. In a simple decay, if the number of decaying nucleus is N(t) In a general case, the activity is proportional to the number of decaying atoms

  28. In a simple decay, if the number of decaying nucleus is N(t) In a general the solution of case, the this differential activity is equation proportional to the number of Exponential Decay Law decaying atoms

  43.  Stochastic vs Deterministic effects  Justification  Limitation  ALARA  Time  Distance  Shielding

  44.  Stochastic vs Deterministic effects  Justification: no unnecessary use of radiation is permitted, which means that the advantages must outweigh the disadvantages  Limitation: each individual must be protected against risks that are too great, through the application of individual radiation dose limits  ALARA - "As Low As Reasonably Achievable"  Time: Reducing the time of an exposure reduces the effective dose proportionally  Distance: Increasing distance reduces dose due to the inverse square law  Shielding: absorbing the energy of the radiation

  45.  Primordial Radionuclides  Secondary Radionuclides  Cosmogenic Radionuclides  Artifical Radionuclides

  46.  Primordial Radionuclides are produced in stellar nucleosynthesis and supernova explosions, their half-lives are so long (>100 million years)  Secondary Radionuclides derived from the decay of primordial radionuclides  Cosmogenic Radionuclides are continually being formed in the atmosphere due to cosmic rays.
