Rot or decompose through the action of bacteria and fungi.
Radioactive decay is the spontaneous breakdown of a nucleus into smaller parts.
Radioactive decay is the spontaneous breakdown of a nucleus into smaller parts.
It is the rate at which somthing decays or breaks down.
The decay product ratio is the ratio of the amount of a specific decay product to the amount of the parent isotope in a radioactive decay chain. It is used to determine the relative contribution of different decay pathways in the decay of a radioactive substance.
The state of tooth decay at any particular time.
Moral decay is loosely defined as the decline in morals. It can be used to describe a particular area, but is generally used when talking about a specific country.
The definition of 'emanation' refers to something that issues from a source. In physics and chemistry, emanation refers to the gaseous production of radioactive decay such as radon.
Penetrating electromagnetic radiation of a kind arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei.
When an element "decays", it forms a different element. This is the definition of "decay" when referring to radioactive elements.
A nucleus that starts to decay is called a radioactive nucleus or atom. It decays with a known and unique half life by several processes including but not limited to beta decay, alpha decay, electron capture decay, and positron emission.
the study of how artifacts and objects decay over an extended period of time
The definition of the word "deteriorated" would be decay, to grow worse, to weaken or to degenerate. An example of the word in a sentence could be, "his health deteriorated overnight".
