What Is Depleted Uranium
T na m What Is Depleted Uranium? Depleted uranium is created as a byproduct during the processing of natural uranium to make it suitable for use as fuel in nuclear power plants or as a component in nuclear weapons. In natural uranium, 99.27% of the mass consists of atoms of uranium-238. About 0.72% of the mass consists of atoms of uranium-235, and a very small amount (0.0055% by mass) is uraniu...
متن کاملA Review on Toxicodynamics of Depleted Uranium
Depleted uranium (DU) is an important by product in uranium enrichment process. Due toits applications in civilian and also military activity, DU emerged as environmental pollutant.The exposure to DU can occur via external or internal pathways. In external exposure, mainlybeta radiation from the decay products contributes to DU toxicity. Internal exposure to DUis more im...
متن کاملGamma-ray Line Transients
Early interpretations of the variability of the narrow 0.511 MeV annihilation line from the Galactic center (GC) were confused by the unrecognized presence of a very extended component (mid 70s | mid 80s). Transient behavior was suggested by comparisons of measurements made by instruments with comparable elds of view, and by detection of other lines which could be interpreted as broadened and D...
متن کاملGamma-ray Line Astronomy *
Gamma-ray lines from radioactive isotopes, ejected into interstellar space by cosmic nucleosynthesis events, are observed with new space telescopes. The Compton Observatory had provided a sky survey for the isotopes 26 Al, detecting supernova radioactivity and the diffuse glow of long-lived radioactivity from massive stars in the Galaxy. High-resolution spectroscopy is now being exploited with ...
