Resumo

The interaction of alpha radiation from UO2 micro- and nanoparticles (uraninite) with the substance was visualized using alpha-autoradiography data on A-2 thick-layer nuclear photographic emulsions. The spherical area of action of alpha particles around UO2 micrograins, up to 100 microns in size, is a deeply transformed substance with a high density of radiation defects. The translation of these results on a living organism leads to the conclusion about the specific type of impact of micro- and nanoparticles of depleted uranium, in which prolonged internal irradiation in small doses of the whole organism is combined with catastrophically high doses of alpha radiation in local zones, near micro- and nanoparticles UO2.
