artificial radioactive isotope → umjetni radioaktivni izotop
Artificial radioactive isotopes are formed when an atom is bombed with an accelerator or exposing it to slow moving neutrons in a nuclear reactor. In this way isotopes (radionuclides) are obtained which are non-existent in nature because of their unstability and radioactive transition into stable isotopes. Most important radioactive isotopes are:
Radioactive isotope of cobalt is formed when ordinary metal cobalt is bombed with neutrons in a nuclear reactor.
Radioactive isotope of phosphorus is formed when ordinary phosphorus is bombed with deuterons produced in cyclotron.
radioactive isotope of carbon is formed when a nitrogen is bombed with slow moving neutrons in a nuclear reactor. It is mostly used as a radioactive indicator.
artificial radioactivity → umjetna radioaktivnost
Artificial radioactivity is a creation, with the help of an accelerator or in the nuclear reactor, of isotopes (radionuclides) which are found in nature because they are unstable and by radioactive conversion they are converted to stable isotopes.
