Conventional stress tests for irradiated materials require a significant amount of material, but a new nano-size technique can test the strength of materials using an infinitesimal amount.

There are many different methods for achieving uniform heat distribution inside the irradiated material.

Scientists quickly recognized that the tests had been conducted differently and agreed that Battelle should do a second study using irradiated material.

"If, instead of processing spent fuel, the ALMR system were used to reprocess irradiated fertile (breeding) material in the electrorefiner, the resulting plutonium would be a superior material, with a nearly ideal isotope composition for nuclear weapons manufacture"

Dark mushrooms from ground bursts contain irradiated material from the ground in addition to the bomb and its casing, and therefore produce more radioactive fallout with larger particles that deposit locally.

It won't just stop the mass, it'll stop more of the irradiated material from going through and give our people more time to evacuate.

In thermoluminescence dating, these long-term traps are used to determine the age of materials: When irradiated crystalline material is again heated or exposed to strong light, the trapped electrons are given sufficient energy to escape.

It tends to be a variety of irradiated, rather than intrinsically radioactive, materials.

I would like to say that the 'Kozloduy Programme' must not only focus on financing the transfer of irradiated materials, increasing energy efficiency in Bulgaria and financing alternative energy sources.

These neutrons change the nucleus of the irradiated material by adding a neutron, or by splitting it in the process of nuclear fission.
