Radioactive Decay Simulation
Use our interactive radioactive decay simulation to watch isotopes decay in real time and compare their behaviour to the ideal exponential decay curve.

Explore how radiation dose varies across everyday life, medical scans, space travel, and major incidents with our interactive chart.
A simplified look inside a nuclear reactor, showing how neutrons, fuel, and control rods interact to shape a stable or runaway chain reaction.
Radiation can alter the material it strikes upon and is easily traced. Because of these qualities, radioisotopes are beneficial in manufacturing, medicine, and other fields.
Cherenkov radiation is a fascinating phenomenon that occurs when charged particles travel through a medium resulting in a characteristic and eerie blue glow.
Measuring and minimising exposure to radiation is a key responsibility of the nuclear industry. But how can we measure something that can’t be seen?
Radiation can be scary, but understanding it can help ease those fears. How radiation works, where it comes from, what it can do to you, and more…
