A 10mm capsule of this got lost the other day in Australia, it made headlines for days. It took several days of travelling on foot just to find and secure it.
and now in thailand a whole block is stolen and awareness is raised to maximum
It was a geological testing nuke tip of a density testing gauge it's very small but still a need of caution when around it, especially since it was out of the lead enclosure.
@@nianderwallace4776and I live in Thailand 💀
@@UnderqualifiedPilot damned to us right? But iheard the police trace its source in smelter already so we are some how safe
@@nianderwallace4776 damn thats crazy
I live in Goiânia, site of the Cesium 137 disaster in Brazil.
The background music is tool loud that I couldn’t hear you well.
For radiactive isotopes in the body, gamma rays are actually the least dangerous. Since they easily pass through almost anything, gamma rays have a high chance to leave the body without interacting with any tissue.
That’s correct!
what about little ol alpha?
@@grandsonofsevenless4285 moreso Beta radiation is the risk. Alpha radiation can ionize but it's less likely to do serious damage. That said any ingested radiation is serious
CS-137 and SR-90 both have half lives of over 30 years.
nice video! are you ever gonna order radiacode
Thank you! Since I already have RAYSID (
What’s radiocode
The 31 keV peak is actually X-rays, right? But why is the peak so big when it is only about 5% intensity, compared to the 95% intensity of the 662 keV peak?
The reason why 662keV peak is smaller is because of the detectors efficiency. The lower the efficiency, the less of high energy gammas will be detected
You also need to compare square of the peak, not just height
awsome mushrooms from chernobyl!
Technically they are from Belerus but yes, they do have some “Chernobyl” in them
