“Protection of Nuclear Radiation”

Abstract

Radioactive materials or radioactive elements have been present in nature since the beginning of creation. They are present in our bodies, our food, the water we drink, and the air we breathe. Our bones contain radioactive polonium and radium, and our muscles contain radioactive carbon and potassium, and there are noble gases and hydrogen tertiary (tritium), which are all radioactive and present in the lungs of any of us. We also recognize cosmic rays and inhale radioactive radon gas permanently. Also, many of us live from Lishua in An atmosphere full of radioactive materials if he works in oil or phosphate extraction areas or goes to relax in mineral baths, and if he is a fan of traveling by plane, this doubles the amount of radiation to which he is exposed. All the radioactive materials mentioned above are natural radioactive materials that have existed since the beginning of creation. However, devices have been manufactured that emit radiation, such as those used in medical and industrial radiography, and many radioactive materials have been manufactured [2] by converting stable materials into materials with unstable nuclei, through nuclear reactions, to produce a radioactive material that can be used for various purposes. The aim of studying and preventing nuclear radiation: Radiation protection is the science of protecting humans from the effects of ionizing rays, whether they are elementary particles such as protons and neutrons or high-energy electromagnetic rays such as X-rays and results of this science, which combines physics and medicine, have been included gamma rays. The in globally agreed upon instructions and commandments, and each country places them within its laws for the purpose of radiation protection. It is imperative for workers in scientific and industrial journals, as well as doctors who specialize in dealing with materials and devices that emit ionizing radiation, to follow these commandments and laws, in order to preserve their health and safety, as well as the safety of the patients who are being treate, By radiation and radioactive isotopes. This also applies to radiographers. This study also aims to clarify the benefits and harms of nuclear radiation and protect humans and all living organisms from radiation damage and benefit from its benefits.
