      Some people have enough uranium in their well water to give our very sensitive test a false positive for uranium uptake at the nuclear plant I work at. If you recall in the video, uranium goes into solution rapidly with oxygen present. IIRC water/air equilibrium oxygen is 8 ppm.

  • @cypherf0x
    @cypherf0x 5 років тому +269

    Not quite right on your knowledge of radiation. You won't have just uranium oxide, but also products of the decay chain. There's an isomer transition that will emit a gamma ray during decay. It's not the U-238 that releases the gamma ray its the decay product Pa-234m which has a half life of about a minute so it's quite active. The gamma readings will be inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. I have a source that's well over 1mSv/h on contact but that drops off sharply with distance. Most of the activity will be Beta. Put a piece of paper on the plate and put the meter on it. You'll get the same reading. Then use a piece of aluminum foil that will block the Beta and you can see how much of it is pure Gamma. That dose reading is also going to be wildly inaccurate as meters are referenced to Cs-137 in the tube datasheet.

    @JimmyJamesJ 5 років тому +1

    Uranium does decay via alpha emission but it decays into many other radioactive “daughter” elements some of which decay via beta emission. When you use a Geiger-Müller tube detector you are also picking up the decay of daughter elements. Additionally, alpha particles can excite other atoms they impact, dumping their energy into those atoms which then emit an X-ray photon, called a secondary X-ray, which the Geiger-Müller tube can detect. The invivo dosimetry process to detect alpha particles in nuclear energy workers looks only for the secondary X-ray emissions from ionized tissues affected by alpha particles.

They have a charge to them i believe from static so they like to jump away from you when you get close to them. You really dont want to be the poor tech to have to go out there and find the one hot particle by yourself it is evidently easier with two people to herd and corner the thing. I have heard the process of finding them described as

    Apparently there's lots of uranium oxide leaching into a river near to my parent's house. The guy who originally built the house started a colour works for ceramic glazes. Later the works used large amounts of the uranium oxide and dumped tonnes of the same. They're trying to find former workers to tell them exactly what's buried in the works dumps... Some guy told them that they lost a fork truck in the radioactive schmoo 😬

    Potassium-40 (40K) is a radioactive isotope of potassium which has a very long half-life of 1.251×109 years. It makes up 0.012% (120 ppm) of the total amount of potassium found in nature.
    There is 358mg per 100g potassium in a banana.
    4.5mg of that is Potassium-40

    Even being an alpha-emitter, U238 will produce gamma radiation, because when the atom decays, you have a change in the internal energy.
    U238 itself emitts 2 types of gamma photons, one at 49 keV and another at 113 keV.
    The uranium ore itself is not pure, so you have decay products that emitts higher energy gamma rays too, which the geiger counter is able to detect.

    I made a Geiger counter that uses a Geiger muler tube and convinced one of the guys at work that does the compaction testing with a cesium 137 source proctor to poke it out of its lead box and next to my Geiger counter it immediately set off the alarm and he pulled it back in and we decided never to do that again but with it inside its lead box it was still putting off really high readings but once you get a foot away it was giving off background readings.

    I have a serious question for you...
    I'll keep it simple. Dug a hole to bury a deer carcass after processing it a few years back and something quite unusual was at the bottom at about 4' down. It looked like yellow mustard combined with mayo, just pale yellow in undisturbed sand with iron ore. It was a deposit of some strange pudding material. It wreaked of sulfur and terrified the 💩 out of me!
    Low lands, not mountainous and I've seen zero info online for what it was in that hole. Usually, I take that as a sign of forbidden knowledge by my dear Uncle.
    Worry or not, your take?!
