Radioactive particles decay

Post by deleted-318947 »

I wonder if there's any possible use or application on the decay or radioactive particles in a future, it doesn't have to be a close future

Hi Sjaak,

There are applications for radioactive decay processes that are used right now. Some that come to mind are certain types of nuclear power generation, radio isotope therapy and carbon dating.

I hope this helps. Please post again if you have more questions.
