Terms for subject Environment (6716 entries)
radiation dose (The total amount of radiation absorbed by material or tissues, in the sense of absorbed dose, exposure dose, or dose equivalent) doża ta' radjazzjoni
radiation effect (Prolonged exposure to ionizing radiation from various sources can be harmful. Nuclear radiation from fallout from nuclear weapons or from power stations, background radiation from substances naturally present in the soil, exposure to X-rays can cause radiation sickness. Massive exposure to radiation can kill quickly and any person exposed to radiation is more likely to develop certain types of cancer than other members of the population) effett mir-radjazzjoni
radiation exposure (The act or state of being subjected to electromagnetic energy strong enough to ionize atoms thereby posing a threat to human health or the environment) espożizzjoni għar-radjazzjoni
radiation monitoring (The periodic or continuous surveillance or analysis of the level of radiant energy present in a given area, to determine that its prescribed amount has not been exceeded or that it meets acceptable safety standards) monitoraġġ tar-radjazzjoni
radiation physics (The study of ionizing radiation and its effects on matter) fiżika tar-radjazzjoni
radiation protection (Precautionary actions, measures or equipment implemented to guard or defend people, property and natural resources from the harmful effects of ionizing energy) protezzjoni mir-radjazzjoni
radiation protection law (A binding rule or body of rules prescribed by government to establish measures to keep humans and natural resources safe from harmful exposure to energy waves released by nuclear materials, electromagnetic current and other sources) liġi dwar il-protezzjoni mir-radjazzjoni
radiation sickness (The complex of symptoms characterizing the disease known as radiation injury, resulting from excessive exposure of the whole body (or large part) to ionizing radiation. The earliest of these symptoms are nausea, fatigue, vomiting, and diarrhea, which may be followed by loss of hair (epilation), hemorrhage, inflammation of the mouth and throat, and general loss of energy) mard mir-radjazzjoni
radio (The process, equipment or programming involved in transmitting and receiving sound signals by electromagnetic waves) radju
radio programme (A performance or production transmitted in sound signals with electromagnetic waves) programm tar-radju
radioactive contamination (Contamination of a substance, living organism or site caused by radioactive material) kontaminazzjoni radjuattiva
radioactive decontamination (The removal of radioactive contamination which is deposited on surfaces or may have spread throughout a work area. Personnel decontamination is also included. Decontamination methods follow two broad avenues of attack, mechanical and chemical) dekontaminazzjoni radjuattiva
radioactive dumping (Waste generated by the emission of particulate or electromagnetic radiation resulting from the decay of the nuclei of unstable elements) dumping radjuattiv
radioactive emission (The release of radioactive substances into the environment deriving from nuclear installations and from mining, purification and enrichment operations of radioactive elements) emissjoni radjuattiva
radioactive fallout (The material that descends to the earth or water well beyond the site of a surface or subsurface nuclear explosion) "fallout" radjuattiv
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) kontaminant radjuattiv
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) sostanza radjuattiva
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) traċċanti radjuattiv
radioactive tracer technique teknika ta' traċċanti radjuattiv
radioactive waste (Any waste that emit radiation in excess of normal background level, including the toxic by-products of the nuclear energy industry) skart radjuattiv
