In this episode Robert Blackley, Senior Health Physicist and
Radiation Services Manager at ANSTO joins host Mark Reggers to
discuss ionising radiation.
Ionising radiation is the energy produced from natural or
artificial sources in the form of waves or particles. It has enough
power to change the composition of substances it interacts with by
breaking their chemical bonds. Although radiation has many useful
applications in industry and medicine, over-exposure can be
detrimental.
