Ionizing particles and electromagnetic waves emitted by atoms undergoing <a href="NuclearDecay.html">nuclear decay</a>. Because of its ionizing
nature, nuclear radiation can be detected, can be shielded against, and can cause physiological damage.

<P>
The &quot;absorbed dose&quot; of radiation is measured in units of &quot;<a href="Rad.html">rads</a>&quot; (which is distinct from the unit of
angular measure known as the <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Radian.html" >radian</a> <img src="http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/images/crossrefs/math.gif" width="12" height="12">) and is given by

The amount of radiation that produces the same damage to humans as 1 <a href="Roentgen.html">Roentgen</a> of 200 kV X-rays is defined as 1
<a href="Rem.html">rem</a> (&quot;roentgen equivalent man). It is the &quot;equivalent absorbed dose&quot;
