People who work around metals that emit alp(-8 mdd)1tqyt ndg3n, ul d +q3jel1mfha particlr(xk ad o9m7.8*meo4tqx3 qefes are trained that there is little danger from proximity or even touching the material, but qmxkoo9 ef*7a eqt 3(d.48mx rthat they must take extreme precautions against ingesting it. Hence, there are strong rules against eating and drinking while working, and against machining the metal. Why?
参考答案:
Alpha particles cannot penetrate a person’s skin, so they do no biological damage even when a person works with or touches an alpha emitter. But, even if dust-sized pieces of the alpha emitter are ingested, then they can do a large amount of ionization damage directly to the exposed cells in your body. Thus, strict rules for employees that prohibit any eating and drinking while working around alpha emitters is an extremely wise precaution. Also, machining of alpha emitters is usually strictly prohibited, due to the fact that this process might create fine dust particles of the radioactive substance that could be inhaled.
