Comments on equilibrium, transient equilibrium, and secular equilibrium in serial radioactive decay.
نویسنده
چکیده
Equations describing serial radioactive decay are reviewed along with published descriptions of transient and secular equilibrium. It is shown that terms describing equilibrium are not used in the same way by various authors. Specific definitions are proposed; they suggest that secular equilibrium is a subset of transient equilibrium.

Can Cat Litter Be a Source of Indoor Radon ?
Emanation of radon (Rn) from several brands of cat (kitty) litter was measured with a continuous radon monitor. Radon emanating from the cat litters, encapsulated in an airtight container, produced equilibrium concentrations below 1.2 pCi/g. The measured radon flux was below 10 pCi/kg-hr for all the cat litters. Although each of the samples emitted a measurable amount of radon, the emanation is...
متن کاملPower System Transient Stability Analysis Based on the Development and Evaluation Methods
A novel method to compute the stability region in power system transient stability analysis is presented. This method is based on the set analysis. The key to this method is to construct the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) partial differential equation (PDE) of a nonlinear system, using which we can compute the backward reachable set by applying the level set methods. The backward reachable set of...
