What is Radiation?

Radiation: Energy in motion

Radioactivity: Spontaneous emission of radiation from the nucleus of an unstable atom

Isotope: Atoms with the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons

Radioisotope: unstabl isotope of an element that decays or disintegrates spontaneously, emitting radiation.


Types of Radiation

Non-Ionizing Radiation: Radiation that does not have sufficient energy to dislodge orbital electrons.

Examples of non-ionizing radiation: microwaves, ultraviolet light, lasers, radio waves, infrared light, and radar.

Ionizing Radiation: Radiation that has sufficient energy to dislodge orbital electrons.

Examples of ionizing radiation: Alpha particles, Beta particles, Neutrons, Gamma rays, and X-rays.

Annual Radiation Exposure From Different Sources

TYPICAL RADIATION EXPOSURE

Characteristics of Radiations:

•Can’t be seen

•Can’t be smelled

•Can’t be heard

•Can’t be felt

•Can’t be sensed by any of the body systems.

• Presence of radiation can only be known by using special instruments.

• Man has no biological sensor to detect the presence of radiation .

CONCLUSION

•The nuclear energy is no more risky than other electricity generating industry • Awareness Of Radiation


• Radiation Was, Is & Will Be A Part Of Life.

•The training program at npcil is very beneficial for me on the behalf of technical and industrial aspects.
