radioactive decay

基本解釋

The point of the experiment is that radioactive decay is a quantum process.
這項(xiàng)實(shí)騐的關(guān)鍵因素在於放射性衰變是一個(gè)量子過程。
But rather than test the radioactive decay using just one method, the researchers used three, involving the elements lead, samarium and neodymium.
但是，相對(duì)於僅使用一個(gè)方法測(cè)試放射性衰變，研究人員測(cè)定時(shí)使用了三種元素，鉛，釤，釹。
Only gravity and a phenomenon called the weak nuclear force, which governs some types of radioactive decay, can bind them—hence the term “weakly interacting”.
衹有重力和一種可以支配某些放射性衰變的弱核力能夠使其聚集凝固，“弱反應(yīng)”這一術(shù)語由此得名。

Alpha particles are these helium nuclei, and they are the result of radioactive decay.
阿爾法粒子是氦核，它們是放射性衰變的産物。

If there is a gigantic mountain with 5, 000 km height, 50% of this mountain would not respond to radioactive decay.

The heat that keeps the core of the earth molten is primarily radioactive decay—-it is what makes rock into liquid lava.

In the meantime, it remains to be seen how these findings will affect the use of radioactive decay in technological applications.

disintegration of a nucleus that occurs spontaneously or as a result of electron capture. One or more different nuclei are formed and usually particles and gamma rays are emitted (Sometimes shortened to decayAlso called disintegration)
