Since water is the most common molecule in tissues, it is usually the molecule ionized. But it can in turn ionize other molecules or break chemical bonds. The energy of the emitted particle is also very important d. A. New radioactive molecules in our environment come from only a few sources 1. Mining radioactive molecules brings them to the surface and into our environment 2.
Atomic accelerators can accelerate atoms to the energy levels that can blast atomic nuclei apart.
Radioactive decay and electromagnetic rays are not powerful enough to make new radionuclides by knocking parts out of nuclei. A whole body dose of 1 Gy would mean that on the average every gram of body tissue absorbed 10,000 ergs of energy 3. This unit replaces the Curie. Recovery occurs in about 3 monthes if there is no complication. This does not cause the food to become radio active 1.
