MIT 22.01: Introduction To Nuclear Engineering And Ionizing Radiation

Lecture 12: Numerical Examples of Activity, Half-Life, and Series Decay (2016x12)

Date de diffusion: Oct 13, 2016

A few example problems are posed and solved together as a class, to illustrate the theoretical topics presented in the last few lectures. Cross sections are reintroduced and incorporated into nuclear reaction rates, so they can be plugged into the series radioactive decay equations.
