Neutron activation analysis is a method for the qualitative and quantitative determination of elements based on the measurement of characteristic radiation from radionuclides formed by irradiating ...

The rare isotopes will decay of their own accord after a short amount of time, roughly one second or less, and emit their characteristic radiation. SuN detects these emitted gamma rays.

"By working with terahertz radiation, we're able to glean details on the underlying characteristics of biological specimens," explains Alexis Guidi, a School of Engineering master's student and ...

There are various types of radiation, each having different characteristics. The common ionizing radiations generally talked about are: Although we cannot see or feel the presence of radiation, it can ...
