Now I am going to tell you more how to recognise a nuclear accident and why some detectors can cost up to 120000$
This channel is so underrated. Thoisoi2 deserves more attention for this amazing efforts
Only genious people who want to watch this channel.
@@LabArlyn True
His other channel is amazing too
@@tek4 Never knew about it. Name please?
Agree, he is awesome and deserves many more subscribers.
All I learned that 3.6 roentgen is not great, not terrible.
Same as with fake news - it is not great, not terrible.
Hahaha LOL
I need that shirt!
You fool! The exposure badge can only measure a maximum of 3.6 roentgen! Lolz thumbs up!
Best commenf eve..... Is Potato.
It's 12 am at Bangladesh, so the day has started here for me with another video from my favorite youtuber! Not a bad start! Love from BD for Thoisoi, and all other scientists/chemists who are contributing to the development of mankind with their tireless labor ❤️❤️🇧🇩
Nice to see a fellow Bangladeshi here
@God ....Bruh, bro the day starts at 12 am almost everywhere

I'm so fascinated by KZhead's mad scientists like you and NileRed.
Ever check out codyslab?
NileRed can only wish to produce videos of this quality.
I live in the middle of two nuclear plants on Lake Ontario. They have KI pills available as well in public centers in case of accidents.
Don't they still pre-distribute KI pills as well?
@@crimsonhalo13 I've lived in Whitby and Oshawa since 98 and haven't had any to the house. Not sure what the shelf life on them
Potassium iodide pills are sort of this better then nothing protection with very questionable efficiency. Theory is if somehow Iodine-131 (highly radioactive byproduct of nuclear fission) escaped into the environment. KI pills will saturate your thyroid which won't then absorb any Iodine-131 (body can't really tell the difference between these two). There are few issues with this. Iodine-131 has very short half life of only 8 days so actually being exposed to it is very unlikely. If you are unlucky enough to been exposed to I-131 fallout, as I-131 decays it releases gamma radiation which can damage human cells and DNA. So yea KI pills are better then nothing but it won't make you immune to radiation. Let me just say that Chernobyl like meltdown is impossible with modern water reactors which are used at all power plants around Ontario lake. They use heavy water to both accelerate the reaction and cool the core, if water vanished reaction would stop by itself. It is completely different design that Chernobyl RBMK used, where they used graphite to accelerate the reaction and water to only cool the core. I would much rather lived next to several modern nuclear power plants then coal ones. No need to worry or stock the KI pills.
I mean, once you taste the metal it's too late.. They say....
I grew up in London which is definitely close enough to be at risk and never knew this. As a chemist I totally would have taken advantage of this, iodine compounds are useful.
Goiana - Brazil - 1987 One of the worst 137Cs accident
That is one of the best T-shirt designs I've seen. I couldn't pay attention to what you were saying for 10's of seconds. I was studying your shirt. Brilliant!
This video took me back to my nuclear power school days (navy). But the toys have gotten cooler 4 decades later. Everything was analog back then and didn't connect to a laptop.
I can't wait for the navy reactor tech to hit the civilian energy space. (NuScale)
Love your content, it's so informative and educational.
A few corrections: 1) the signal created in the polymer due to alpha particles is a light pulse and is turned into an electrical signal with a photomultiplier tube. 2) Beta particles don't penetrate more due to smaller size or mass. They penetrate more due to having half the charge of an alpha particle. 3) the gamma radiation is not the only type of radiation that can have spectrum analysis done. Alpha radiation is frequently subject of spectrum analysis. Neutron radiation can be done too with very expensive equipment. Even beta radiation can be done, but since the energy function is continuous, it is very hard and rarely done.
You did a better wiki search then the channel did good job
He never said that first bit
@@sturggaming6759 brah, I teach this as part of my job. He did better than most. Even science channels commonly get radiation wrong.
He never said most of that shit actually
@@sturggaming6759 hahah ja
Great show! Thank you
I love these videos, they are so useful and interesting.
I learn so much through your videos. Your content is the best.
The ethanol cloud chamber is not called "Wilson Cloud Chamber". It is called "Diffusion Cloud Chamber" and was invented later than the Wilson Chamber.. You keep showing the Diffusion Cloud Chamber and saying "Wilson Cloud Chamber". The "Wilson Cloud Chamber" works in a completely different way - it uses water vapors and achieves super-saturated state by dropping the air pressure inside. The Wilson cloud chamber is only active for a few seconds before it needs to be "reset" while the diffusion is constantly operating
Thank you for the clarification. Important distinction.
Tech Ingredients just made a video few days ago about radiation
Your english is improving a lot. You can really tell that your fluency has increased. Its genuinely impressive to see how well you are starting to speak the language.
👍 👌
@Shaolin Style ..by himself. He does original videos in russian, for russophones.
Very COOL! I look forward to these now! God Bless
Thank you Thoisoi2 for irradiating us with knowledge ❤️❤️❤️
Best comment on the channel
@@tek4 thank you. You're cool. How do I pay you please? crypto NFT ? rubles ?
Thoisoi2, thanks for you and your team's efforts, you're mankind's treasure
Thanks for the variety of information in this video. I was especially fascinated by the air filter detector systems, I'd wanted to know for a long time how they did that. Basically it's a fancier version of the home vacuum and Geiger counter experiment. :)
Collapses under its own weight is a very unintuitive euphemism. A clearer, but far from full explanation, is that electrostatic repulsion is trying to pull the nucleus apart and the strong force holding it toghether is very short ranged. This is why big atoms have a large surplus of neutrons; neutrons don’t have electrostatic repulsion as they don’t have net charge, so it is worth filling higher energy levels with neutrons before you fill lower energy level. Alpha decay is common because helium-4 is conspicuously stable for a small neucleus; it has a filled proton ”shell” and a filled neutron ”shell”. This is known for some godawtul reason as ”doubly magic”; compare with noble gases. Fission splits an element into two lighter nuclei; these have too many neutrons; beta decay turns a neutron to a proton and an electron and this is what most unstable fission products do.
Thank you so much for your translation. Your English is great!
I have had more than 50 CT scans. And when I turn off the light in my bathroom I can see a slight glow around the area they scanned me. Should I be worried?
Putin watching this:- Thoisoi will be our nuclear chemical chief officer of Russia
I love how you say “thoroughly” and “though”. 😂
Yeah the "thoruff" was amusing. He does pretty good for the most part... Lol English is a cluster.
go watch nilered and note how many times he says though, that gets annoying quickly
@@GrimFilth 🤦♂️ 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Do try and keep up.
Excellent presentation thankyou.
We used a cesium element tipped soil density/moisture content measurement device in our materials testing laboratory
This is a great video. Powerful stuff.
What a great video! Thanks man you rock.
Very interesting indeed sir. Thank you.
Thankyou for sharing this information . 💜❤️👍💐
I'm student of nuclear physics I love all your videos and specially the videos of radioactive elements pls give us the link to download the mobile radiation measuring device like in your previous video please
I know it's not the most related to your channel, but I think a video on common radioactive minerals would be interesting. Things like thorium-containing granite that isn't that uncommon. Rocks you could find in your backyard. Maybe a video on the everyday sources of radiation.
Bananas 🍌 too. People don't realize how much radiation in potassium can effect things.
Or about the Radon gas.The more mountainous are you live in,the more radiation.
Thank you for this radiation and chemical content.
I've seen my share of DU lined lead pigs.... I worked in a decommission lab for almost a year. Spooky place!!! Lots of accidents. We prossed spent medical sources among many other things, some I can't talk about. The guy that got me the job died of leukemia last year. I have no doubt it was the nuclear lab we worked at. We were lab grunts with minimal College. We worked with people making fifty times what we made.
Wait... instead of using lead they used DU as radiation shielding pigs? Wow kind of self-defeating purpose... even if DU is not particularly radioactive, it still can be serious business if inhaled
@@simonepiselli1004 it's a depleted uranium (alloy most of the time) liner surrounded by lead. Depleted uranium is something like four times more dense than lead. It's really good at stopping gamma rays. It's not dumb if you know what you're talking about... Maybe read the op again. I'm pretty clear about it. "DU (key word) *lined lead pigs". They are only used for very hot gamma sources. I've seen some bismuth pigs lined with gold as well. It depends on what is in the pig. Sometimes they are stored in oil to help cool the source. Those have big heatsinks. Sometimes a little tungsten jar is enough.
@@luke144 ah sorry, my bad, I got the order wrong xD I thought they were lead pigs lined in DU... now it all makes sense thanks haha
@@simonepiselli1004 😉👍
If only we could combine dimethyl mercury, dichlorodifluoromethane, radium, & leaded gas.

This guy should do an episode on Thomas Midgley. Veritassium did yesterday.
@@TyrannosaurusSex Derek has his place, but it's not _MY_ place... 😆 Just pointing out that Midgely's discoveries listed above were recently covered on a popular KZhead channel.
You could combine dimethylmercury with a halogenated haydrocarbon to make a halogenated mercury contaning organic compound. Would be next level toxic 😵😵😵
Love the fact that there's a windows update notification at 19:05. I feel that one xD
I see Radiacode-101 and I gives thumb-up :D It's very nice device and I like it.
This device is so sensitive it picks up radioactive isotopes in the body :u (I have operated one a few times)
Thumbs up and subscribed! What do you think about thorium powerplants?
I've only ever heard gamma called gamma RAYS before..... I like the way you are being more scientifically accurate by saying gamma quanta. :)
That depends on if it identifies as a particle or identifies as a wave. Lol
You can build your own fancy scintillator for a tiny fraction of the cost if you're handy with electronics.
luv this guy
Curies' curiosity, the metaphor makes so much sense
Great video as usual! What is the Geiger counter that connects to your mobile phone? I want one.
RadiaCode's RadiaScan-101. It's a scintillator/gamma spectrometer, not a Geiger counter.
Amazing videos
I really appreciate the information you share with your channel, Also your accent is good to listen to 👍🏻 But I can't help but hear Rhodesian instead of radiation :p

Really. I own 8 of those , used already. Not sure if all containers full. From where? Hospital.
Hi there. Love your work. I have a question regarding aluminum oxide. What chemicals or oxides can reduce aluminum oxide melting point if you heat them together in a crucible in a furnace? I know this auestion is not in par with the video above but I dont have your email address. I will appreciate your feedback
I thought, industrially, people use cryolite to lower the melting point of alumina?
In the web they talk about cryolite but where I am it is not slld thats why am looklinv for other alternatives
Dont mind typing error I have fat fingers
Have you tried a Google search for this? What about a flux like borax?
Where'd you get that t-shirt? I want one.
Bahah, that shirt is awesome!
great vid, makes me laugh though, such an expensive bit of kit, but someone has written on the sensor with a black marker pen - lol
Great t-shirt for this video 😂
interesting! i wonder what the more expensive or classified detectors are like.ones used for counter terrorism at major bridges or entry point to large cities or events, protection of vip, etc
April 26 at 12:51 EST I saw a peek on RadioCode of some 8 times usual for about an hour. Any one know from where this came? Solar ?
Yes. CME
Thankyou
Is that a "squatting slavs in tracksuits" t-shirt? :D
I love your videos foremost. That graph with photon energy bothered me. Xrays and gamma rays are the same energy range the difference is the origin: tube or atom.
Well in astronomy it is still defined by energy. And in general, besides specific high end physics experiments or medical machines, that distinction is still useful. But yeah, classification by source makes sense and has been widely adopted
5:22 thosoi actually said air right after he said ear for like the millionth time! 😂
Thanks dude for another video!! Atomic topic is my jam! If the reader didn’t know radiation is essentially light. Really high intensity light, so powerful it’ll breaks the molecular bonds of your dna chain, so when the “blue flash” happens your dna gets scrambled you die slowly because the cells in your body are going to be the last cells you’ll ever have till you die ☠️
Here's the funny thing though If you have cancer radiation helps kill the spreading cells Of course you won't be no Mr Manhattan And get super powers but the human body can take alot punishment...
Manmade horrors beyond our comprehension
@@quantumblur_3145 That's a horrible thing to say about your mother.
@@godfreypoon5148 an admirable retort. There's just one problem: I have already flooded this comment section with lethal amounts of radiation. Get owned.
When you figure out the mediator to “light” one of mother natures tricks it undoubtedly helps settle your mind on how and why her tricks work. “Radiation” being another one of her tricks. For me two critical issues is the discrete particles can not explain action at a distance. 2nd is Niels Bohr and Rutherfords planetary stain has throughly been debunked but “mathematical physicist” insist on keeping that monster alive. Interconnected object explains allot but what is the invisible intangible object look like? How can one atom pull on another how can lights “wave” be mediated what object carry’s this wave
Need more videos on aerogel
love the tshirt.

I am watching a chemistry video at 2am even when I don't have chemistry degree
There seems to be multiple radiation information videos released on youtube in last few days, is it a youtube suggested thing for youtubers to do? or possibly related to the 660kg missing radioactive material from Chernobyl
That is exactly the message THEY want you to get.
I see you're dubbing your own - presumably Russian - original. Since i do understand that i wouldn't mind watching them, in fact i'm quite curious. Where can i find those takes given there are any, that is?

Radiation seems like fire, lightning, and sunshine coming from solid metals
Whare you buy chemistry in online
These would be really great random number generators
You made a video recently.
Thank you comrade for the tips on surviving WWIII
But you have the most informative videos
This video came at a time not a minute too soon.
Is light a particle, wave or a disturbance in the aether? If we look at the action/ interaction of elements with the 'space' surrounding them then we can come to different, strange conclusions... Alpha and beta particles are 'solid' elements helium and hydrogen in a high energy state which disperse their energy over time to become 'stable'. How do we clean up highly energetic and or unstable elements which have been scattered via chemical/mechanical explosions?
There is no such thing as aether. Try to bring your understanding at least into the 20th century.
@@thomasneal9291 Perhaps if you investigate some of the OOParts you would realize that 'modern' man isn't so smart after all.

Hey you made a video of caesium metal
Can you do a video on the basement laboratory at Chernobyl (kreosan channel, footage)? there are many people who go there and still loads of chemicals, not to mention the radioactive firefighters boots and clothing would be interesting to know what some of those chemicals are and how dangerous that place is!
