Chapter 16 NuClear Chemistry
Chapter 16 NuClear Chemistry691tan is going to visit his son Fred at the radiology department of a local research hospital, where Fred has been recording the brain activity of kids with learning differences and comparing it to the brain activity of kids who excel in normal school environments. To pursue this research, Fred uses imaging technology developed through the science of NuClear Chemistry , the study of changes that occur within the nuclei of atoms. But even before getting into his car to go see Fred, Stan is already surrounded by substances undergoing NuClear reactions. In fact, NuClear reactions accompany Stan wherever he goes. He has strontium-90 in his bones and iodine-131 in his thyroid, and both substances are constantly undergoing NuClear reactions of a type known as beta emission.
