Is bombardment of alpha particles on beryllium artificial radioactivity?
You can say that as long as the alpha particle itself is not originating from a radioactive element. If however one is able to isolate the helium nucleus from the elemental atom and then used for bombarding towards the beryllium then it is considered as an example of artificial radioactivity. Or the production of a radioactive element(synthetic element) like Francium can be considered artificial radioactivity.
Named for the god of the underworld radioactive element?
Plutonium is the radioactive element named after the god of the underworld, Pluto. It is used in nuclear reactors and weapons due to its high radioactivity.
Is francium used in bombs?
No, Francium is not used in bombs. Due to its high radioactivity and scarcity in nature, Francium is not a practical element to use in weapon applications.
What element is used in Americium?
Americium is a synthetic element that typically uses plutonium as the starting material for its production. It is commonly used in smoke detectors and in some medical devices for imaging purposes due to its radioactivity.
What is the device used to locate radioactivity?
