THE RADIATION IMPACT OF NUCLEAR BOMBS

HOW LONG DOES RADIATION LAST?

After a nuclear bomb explodes, radiation lasts for varying durations depending on the radioactive isotopes released.

RADIOACTIVE ISOTOPES AND HALF LIVES

The half lives of radioactive isotopes determine how long radiation remains hazardous. Some last just days, while others can be dangerous for years.

TYPES OF NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS

Nuclear weapons are divided into atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs, each releasing different types of radiation.

INITIAL RADIATION VS. RESIDUAL RADIATION

Initial radiation consists of strong gamma rays released immediately after the explosion, while residual radiation lasts longer.

WHAT IS NUCLEAR FALLOUT?

Nuclear fallout refers to the radioactive particles released into the air after an explosion, which can spread over large areas by the wind.

UNDERSTANDING HALF LIVES

Half life refers to the time it takes for half of a radioactive isotope to decay, determining how long radiation remains effective.

HEALTH EFFECTS OF RADIATION

Exposure to radiation can lead to acute radiation syndrome and long-term health issues, with effects depending on the duration of exposure.
