Terms for subject Environment (7737 entries)
radioactive effluent eisilteach radaighníomhach
radioactive emission (The release of radioactive substances into the environment deriving from nuclear installations and from mining, purification and enrichment operations of radioactive elements) astú radaighníomhach
radioactive fallout (The material that descends to the earth or water well beyond the site of a surface or subsurface nuclear explosion) radachur radaighníomhach
radioactive mineral mianra radaighníomhach
radioactive pollutant (A substance undergoing spontaneous decay or disintegration of atomic nuclei and giving off radiant energy in the form of particles or waves, often associated with an explosion of a nuclear weapon or an accidental release from a nuclear power plant, holding facility or transporting container) truailleán radaighníomhach
radioactive pollution truailliú radaighníomhach
radioactive product táirge radaighníomhach
radioactive substance (Any substance that contains one or more radionuclides of which the activity or the concentration cannot be disregarded as far as radiation protection is concerned) substaint radaighníomhach
radioactive tracer (A radioactive isotope which, when injected into a biological or physical system, can be traced by radiation detection devices, permitting determination of the distribution or location of the substance to which it is attached) rianaire radaighníomhach
radioactive tracer technique teicníc rianaithe radaighníomhaigh
radioactive waste dramhaíl radaighníomhach
radioactive waste (Any waste that emit radiation in excess of normal background level, including the toxic by-products of the nuclear energy industry) dramhaíl radaighníomhach
radioactive waste management (The total supervision of the production, handling, processing, storage and transport of materials that contain radioactive nuclides and for which use, reuse or recovery are impractical) bainistíocht dramhaíola radaighníomhaí
radioactivity (The property possessed by some atomic nuclei of disintegrating spontaneously, with loss of energy through emission of a charged particle and/or gamma radiation) radaighníomhaíocht
radioelement (An element that is naturally radioactive) dúil atá radaighníomhach go nádúrtha
radionuclide (A nuclide that exhibits radioactivity) radanúiclíd
radon (A radioactive gaseous element emitted naturally from rocks and minerals where radioactive elements are present. It is released in non-coal mines, e.g. tin, iron, fluorspar, uranium. Radon is an alpha particle emitter as are its decay products and has been indicted as a cause of excessive occurrence of lung cancer in uranium miners. Concern has been expressed at radon levels in some housing usually adjacent to granite rocks or old tin mining regions) radón
rag (Discarded textile waste, either post-consumer waste or pre-consumer waste, such as manufacturing process scraps) bratóg éadaigh
rail traffic (The movement and circulation of vehicles transporting goods and people on railroad systems) trácht ar iarnród
rail transport (Transportation of goods and persons by railway) iompar ar iarnród
