6 EQUATIONS OF RADIOACTIVE DECAY AND GROWTH

6.6 RADIOACTIVE DECAY SERIES If a radioactive nuclide is situated in the Chart of Nuclides far from the stability line (for the light elements at Z=N), the daughter nucleus after radioactive decay may be radioactive as well. In nature this occurs with the heavy nuclides in the uranium and thorium decay series (Chapter 12).

Chapter 3 RADIATION DOSIMETERS - IAEA

A guard electrode is usually provided in the chamber to further reduce chamber leakage. The guard electrode intercepts the leakage current and allows it to flow to ground, bypassing the collecting electrode. It also ensures improved field uniformity in the active or sensitive volume of the chamber, with resulting advantages in charge collection.

Getting Down to Earth - Electronic Test Equipment

To measure earth resistivity, a four-terminal instrument is used, along with four small-sized electrodes - driven down to the same depth and equal distances apart in a straight line (Fig. 1). Four separate lead wires connect the electrodes to the four terminals on the instrument, as shown. Hence, the name of this test: the four-terminal method.

MINE REHABILITATION

Monitoring sites measure the progress of rehabilitated areas. An innovative program to count ants, which are a key indicator of ecosystem development, has also been implemented. Rehabilitation work at the Ginkgo mine demonstrates a commitment to the landscape and developing innovative techniques to return it to a diverse, functioning ecosystem.
