The class outcomes, expectations, and grading are explained. A history of radioelement discovery and radiation research is presented. The Chart of the Nuclides and Table of the Isotopes are discussed and used. Atomic properties, nuclear nomenclature, X-rays, types of decays and physical forces are introduced. Part one viewing time is 44 minutes, part 2 viewing time is 43 minutes.
The lecture is assigned on Monday 7 January 2019 and due Saturday 12 January 2019. The answers to Lecture 1 PDF quiz will be posted Sunday 13 January 2019.
I've submitted Quiz 1. When they're submitted with the "submit form" option in the pdf, does this get reflected in the assignment page on Canvas?
ReplyDeleteOn 7th slide of the powerpoint, when the figure "relative location of Products of Various Nuclear Reaction"says "d" and "H^3", I'm wondering what do they refer to?
ReplyDeleteI think d is deuterium, it's a proton and neutron, and H^3 is tritium, a proton and two neutrons. Basically different isotopes of hydrogen.
DeleteEvan is correct. Sometimes you will see T instead of 3H.
DeleteI have submitted quiz 1. It seems the "submit form" option in the pdf still does not work. It was also very interesting and informative to hear a bit more history.

ReplyDeleteI have submitted quiz 1 via canvas. I am still unable to get the electronic signature working, but everything else worked fine.
ReplyDeleteNot sure if you've tried this, but I had to download the newest Adobe Acrobat Reader. Then Download and Save the quiz to my computer. Open it in that Adobe and then the signature worked.
Deletewonderful suggestion!
DeleteRyan the submission was great. If the electronic signature does not function that is okay

ReplyDeleteFinished the lecture and submitted the quiz.
ReplyDeleteQuiz submitted. The method of delivery in this class is interesting and I look forward to the future lecture videos
ReplyDeleteQuiz has been sent. Really enjoyed learning about the history of the elements and progression of the field. Nuclides are also really fascinating as charts, loved it.
ReplyDeleteI agree!

ReplyDeletelecture one has been watched and the quiz has been submitted.
ReplyDeleteFinished up lecture one, and submitted the quiz. My computer did not like the downloaded powerpoint, but watching lectures has worked well for me in MP4 format.
ReplyDeletethanks for the information. I hope this was not an issue.
DeleteReviewed lecture one and submitted the quiz on canvas.
ReplyDeleteI have watched the lecture video and sent the quiz pdf.
ReplyDeleteI have submitted quiz 1, and I would like to know what employment review means in the final and does this class provide any research opportunity?
ReplyDeleteThe employment review is an examination of existing positions in radiochemistry. There are research opportunities at national laboratories in radiochemistry. There are also some on campus research opportunities in medical applications of isotopes.
DeleteI have submitted the PDF quiz 1 via the submit button.
ReplyDeleteLecture watched and quiz submitted!
ReplyDeleteI submitted PDF Quiz 1 both via "Submit form" on Adobe and through Canvas. Also, the Powerpoint formats have been working great for me.
ReplyDeletethanks for the feedback on the powerpoints
DeleteI submitted the quiz!
ReplyDeleteFor answering questions such as 2.2 where there are 2 isomeric states, do we usually refer to the metastable state or ground state?
great question. If I was requesting the metastable state it would read 99mNb. The question was designed to enhance differentiation between the listing of the metastable and ground state.
