Examples
EXAMPLES FROM THE CORPUS
  • Asteroids contain a variety of rare radioactive isotopes of potassium, uranium, thorium, rubidium, and so on.
  • But by looking at the levels of various isotopes, geochemists can group the rocks that have similar deep-earth origins.
  • Electricity produced by radioactive isotopes, strontium 90, polonium 210, by thermoelectric energy conversion.
  • The isotopes give off long-lasting alpha radiation and the waste will remain dangerous for 3000 years or more.
  • There is also a section on isotope dilution analysis.
  • Thiemens said that it might even be possible to apply the effect to enrichment of certain isotopes.
  • Uranium has two radioactive isotopes, each of which decays to an isotope of lead and helium.
  • Woodhead etal. combine such analyses with oxygen isotope analyses, and it is variations in the latter that are particularly significant.
