alpha radiation A stream of alpha particles which are ejected from many radioactive substances having a penetrating power of a few cm in air but can be stopped by a thin piece of paper | Alphastrahlung |
background radiation Radiation resulting from natural sources, as opposed to man-made sources, and to which people are exposed in everyday, normal life; for example from rocks and soil | Hintergrundstrahlung |
background radiation | Hintergrundstrahlung |
balance of radiation | Wärmehaushalt |
balance of radiation | Wärmebilanz |
balance of radiation | Strahlungsbilanz |
beta radiation Name given to the ionizing radiation which is produced as a stream of high speed electrons emitted by certain types of radioactive substance when they decay. The intensity of radiation energy produced in human tissue by a beta particle is a hundred times less than that produced by an alpha radiation particle, but it travels slightly deeper into tissue | Betastrahlung |
