RADIATION SCATTERING

Specialty Definition: RADIATION SCATTERING

DomainDefinition

Physics

The diversion of radiation(thermal, electromagnetic, or nuclear)from its original path as a result of interaction or collisions with atoms, molecules, or larger particles in the atmosphere or other media between the source of the radiation(e. g. , a nuclear explosion)and a point at some distance away. As a result of scattering, radiation(especially gamma rays and neutrons)will be received at such a point from many directions instead of only from the direction of the source. Source: European Union.

Specialty Definition: Radiation scattering

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In telecommunication, radiation scattering is the diversion of radiation (thermal, electromagnetic, or nuclear) from its original path as a result of interaction or collisions with atoms, molecules, or larger particles in the atmosphere or other media between the source of radiation (e.g., a nuclear explosion) and a point some distance away. As a result of scattering, radiation (especially gamma rays and neutrons) will be received at such a point from many directions instead of only from the direction of the source.
