Nuclear Explosion Products

A nuclear explosion is the process of formation of radioactive isotopes and fission products under the influence of external energy. During nuclear explosions, plasma and fragments collide with each other, neutrons are formed - the building material of radioactive substances, and the atomic balance of nuclei is disrupted.

The products of a nuclear explosion are immediately distributed in space and fall to the ground, sometimes raising huge clouds of dust. They form a radioactive cloud around themselves, which is dangerous for life on Earth. After a nuclear strike, all vegetation, animals and humans, after 7-15 days, absorb radiation products and die. Sometimes animals survive, but they cease to exist normally. The greatest degree of damage is observed in large animals.



Products of a nuclear explosion are radioactive substances formed during any nuclear or household explosion and located in the environment for a long time. They have a strong penetrating ability, causing changes in the lungs, liver, kidneys and blood of victims; when ingested, they cause envelopment of the insoles of the lungs with a colloidal suspension, as well as red blood cells and even small vessels. The damaging factors of nuclear weapons can lead to general contamination of open areas with radioactive explosion products, and therefore pose a danger to all living things in the contaminated area. The explosion of an atomic destroyer results in the formation of the following types of waste, which must be removed within six months



**Products of a nuclear explosion** - radioactive substances (products of fission of nuclear charges and thermonuclear fusion reactions) formed as a result of a nuclear explosion. The processes of formation of nuclear explosion products are based on the nuclei of uranium, thorium, zirconium and transuranium elements. Nuclear explosion products are products
