  2. Automatic calculation of particle interaction or decay

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_calculation_of...

    The automatic calculation of particle interaction or decay is part of the computational particle physics branch. It refers to computing tools that help calculating the complex particle interactions as studied in high-energy physics , astroparticle physics and cosmology .

  3. Decay correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decay_correction

    The decay correct might be used this way: a group of 20 animals is injected with a compound of interest on a Monday at 10:00 a.m. The compound is chemically joined to the isotope copper-64, which has a known half-life of 12.7 hours, or 764 minutes.

  4. Bateman equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bateman_equation

    In nuclear physics, the Bateman equation is a mathematical model describing abundances and activities in a decay chain as a function of time, based on the decay rates and initial abundances. The model was formulated by Ernest Rutherford in 1905 [1] and the analytical solution was provided by Harry Bateman in 1910. [2]

  5. Neutron detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_detection

    Decay: Outside the nucleus, free neutrons are unstable and have a mean lifetime of 885.7 ± 0.8 s (about 14 minutes, 46 seconds). [1] Free neutrons decay by emission of an electron and an electron antineutrino to become a proton, a process known as beta decay: [2] n 0 → p + + e − + ν e. Although the p + and e −

  6. Free neutron decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_neutron_decay

    For the free neutron, the decay energy for this process (based on the rest masses of the neutron, proton and electron) is 0.782 343 MeV.That is the difference between the rest mass of the neutron and the sum of the rest masses of the products.

  7. Neutron radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_radiation

    Neutron radiation is a form of ionizing radiation that presents as free neutrons.Typical phenomena are nuclear fission or nuclear fusion causing the release of free neutrons, which then react with nuclei of other atoms to form new nuclides—which, in turn, may trigger further neutron radiation.

  8. Nondestructive testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondestructive_testing

    NDT is used in a variety of settings that covers a wide range of industrial activity, with new NDT methods and applications, being continuously developed. Nondestructive testing methods are routinely applied in industries where a failure of a component would cause significant hazard or economic loss, such as in transportation, pressure vessels ...

  9. Free induction decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_induction_decay

    Free induction decay (FID) nuclear magnetic resonance signal seen from a well shimmed sample. In Fourier transform nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, free induction decay (FID) is the observable nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal generated by non-equilibrium nuclear spin magnetization precessing about the magnetic field (conventionally along z).
